November 14, 2010 Dear Farmer Tom,

Hi! It's Bridget the Turkey! You should certainly choose me for your Thanksgiving dinner. I will be the most delectable turkey your family has ever eaten. I am as juicy as a freshly plucked orange from an orange tree in Florida. Also, I exercise all of the time so there is not an ounce of fat on my lean body. When your family eats me, I will melt in their mouths like creamy milk chocolate. Yum! In addition, I am one of the biggest turkeys in all of the United States. Therefore, I will be able to feed your colossal family on Thanksgiving and they'll even have plenty of leftovers. Your family will be so impressed with your cooking because I am the tastiest turkey around. They will compliment you on the delicious meal for years to come. It certainly isn't Thankgiving without a scrumptious turkey. Farmer Tom, it truly would be a great honor if you chose me, Bridget the Turkey, for your Thanksgiving feast.

Your number one turkey,

Bridget the Turkey
