Murphy’s take-out Thanksgiving is our family tradition

It started years ago when I was a stressed-out working mom of young kids. Murphy’s to-go Thanksgiving saved our holiday. The food was delicious and I could relax.

It’s now our family tradition and I may face rebellion if I did try to cook. But why bother? The dinner comes with butternut squash soup, green salad, turkey breast, sweet potatoes, green beans, cornbread dressing, cranberry and orange chutney, and gravy. For dessert, you add your choice of pumpkin, apple, pecan or Toll House pie.

You can also add mac and cheese, wine, extra dressing or pie for an additional charge.
