• Your cheese broccoli lima bean casserole will gain newly found appreciation.

• Pets won't pester you for scraps.

• After dinner, the guys can take the bird to the yard and play football.

• You'll get to the desserts quicker.

• You won't have to face three weeks of turkey sandwiches. http://www.humormatters.com/
