Here are some Thanksgiving leftovers, courtesy of a friend of mine, Roan McClure.
*What did the mama turkey say to her naughty son? “If your papa could see you now, he'd turn over in his gravy!”
*Asked to write a composition titled, “What I’m thankful for on Thanksgiving,” one little boy wrote, “I am thankful that I’m not a turkey.”
*What was Tom the Turkey’s excuse for not coming over for Thanksgiving dinner? “I'm already stuffed.”
*A woman was picking through the frozen turkeys at a grocery store, but couldn’t find one big enough for her family. She asked a stock clerk, “Do these turkeys get any bigger?” The stock clerk answered, “No ma’am, they’re dead.”
*A son-in-law wanted to play a joke on his mother-in-law, so he took a small Cornish game hen and put it inside the Thanksgiving turkey before they roasted it. When they served the bird, he stuck the fork inside and pulled out the fully cooked Cornish game hen. When his mother-in-law saw it, she cried out, “Oh no, you cooked a pregnant turkey,” and fainted.
