34. Better off getting chicken of some kind, or just forgo the whole thing, don't give people food poisoning, get some sides

for chicken such as mashed potatoes, green beans, perhaps simple stuffing, get some canned cranberry sauce and get it chilled out quickly (stick it in the freezer for 30 minutes or so). The green beans and mashed potatoes, there are quick mixes you can get, the stuffing the same way, but I like my stuffing w/ some of the turkey goods (giblets, liver, etc. all chopped up, they give the dressing it's kick).
