"Thanksgiving? What ever is that old chap" pondered Rattus. "It is a day when Americans celebrate what they are thankful for; there is a dinner consisting of turkey, potatoes and gravy and other wonderful foods. What do you say we make a go for it and climb on back to Hilltop? I hear that the Dutchess is a fine cook. We do have a key to get back into Nowhere. We can continue our journey after dinner."
The oversized bird and the Dutchess's reputation for being a graduate of Gustave's cooking school convinced Rattus that this was a risk worth taking. "All right old man, but we better get started on our journey now; it is a week's walk to Hilltop from here and we need to gather Gretta and Raccoon. Let's go!"

Oh that's just lovely...were off to see the Dutchess...better warn Gustave...he always wants to "help"in the Kitchen..:))
Oh my goodness, I have never seen a turkey that big before!!! Suzie. xx
Oh my, we will all be sleeping for days with a turkey that huge!
Good gravy, someone should have had more compassion for the poor turkey chap...what a life wasted, landing in a oven and then it all comes down to the Hilltop table.
Wish I lived on Hilltop with a beautiful turkey like that smack dab in the center...yum...and, good gravy, it's huge! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
