Thanksgiving Mishaps with Patrick

 

My Aunt is a thanksgiving legend. Every year, she'd arrive with a perfectly plump turkey, ready to be the centerpiece of our family feast. One year, I decided to add a little twist to the tradition. I carefully placed a Cornish Hen inside the turkey, hoping to surprise everyone with my culinary creativity.

As I carved the turkey, I couldn't contain my excitement. I dramatically announced, "The turkey's pregnant!" The room fell silent. My aunt, known for her calm demeanor, was visibly shocked. A few of my younger cousins started to cry, mistaking the Cornish hen for a real turkey. The ensuing chaos was equal parts hilarious and horrifying, a Thanksgiving memory that would be etched in our family's history forever.
