Turkey On the Table

T hanksgiving, yes that's when we have delicious Tom Turkey. He has 2 drumsticks on the end of his feeT... U nderneath Old Tom is a big fat juicy breast. Some people on Thanksgiving prefer just the breast do yoU R unning to and fro in the field, it's hard to catch Old Tom. If this were a movie Old Tom would be the staR K eeping fat and sassy, he stays ready until a few days before Thanksgiving, and guess who they seeK E veryone is ready to see that rascal roasted golden brown and sitting on a platter in the middle of the tablE Y es the turkey is stuffed and on the table ready. Everyone count your blessings. For it's Thanksgiving DaY
