Stuffing the turkey.

"Actually, it wasn't so bad. One minute I was standing in line at the slaughterhouse...The next thing I knew, I was being basted in my own juices..."

"Fresh-raked leaves?"

"The Steak, too? I know it's autumn, but do you have to have EVERY thing pumpkin spice?"

"...and most of all, thank you for pre-cooked holiday meals from the supermarket!"

"Well, they have to hibernate somewhere...and your airing cupboard is no exception."
