Turkey takeout this Thanksgiving

Those who say they no longer have time to shop for and cook a Thanksgiving meal are ordering their turkey and trimmings to go from restaurants.

From formal to fast food, a variety of holiday meals are available. The meals need only to be warmed and served. Be sure to call ahead as soon as possible.
