Thanksgiving is a time for family, friends and great food but during the hustle and bustle of the holidays, it's no longer realistic to spend all day in the kitchen.
With the all around-chaos that comes with the holidays, it's a relief that some First Coast businesses are offering a solution.
These businesses are providing full Thanksgiving meals that you can pick-up, pop in the oven and perhaps even claim as your own (if you dare).
