Gobble, Gobble!

Happy Thanksgiving! We hope you are enjoying a wonderful meal with those you love.
Did you know that turkey has more protein than chicken or beef?   There's your turkey fun fact for the day.  
When you are done stuffing your face, head on over to take a quiz so that you can know what you have always wanted to know.   What side dish are you? Personally, I hope you get something more exciting than green beans.

You Are Green Beans

Some people make a big fuss over you, but you're best when you're at your simplest. You have a fresh, crisp outlook on life. You are lighthearted, and you don't like to be weighed down by anything. You enjoy being out in nature, and you wish that more people appreciated the simple beauty of a home cooked vegetable. You are a thoughtful and spiritual person. You wish more people would spend time on Thanksgiving thinking about what they're thankful for.
