I grew up right by the old Nabisco factory, so the sweet smell of cookies would have been my answer. RIP 😔

I had to see this and now everyone does too
In a not-so-far-away village, there was a young robot named Randall. While doing his daily routine job-delivering food and trying to avoid all sorts of potholes without flipping-he ran into his friend Jomari. "Hi, Randall. What are your plans for Thanksgiving tonight?" she asked. "Well, I have to deliver a large number of stuffed turkeys for our humans to celebrate," he responded while feeling a bit nostalgic. "Yeah, me too," replied Jomari. Suddenly, they heard the rattling wheels of another co-worker approaching. "Hi, folks!" said Quincy. "Any plans for after work? I have a couple of canceled turkey orders that might go to waste! Would you like to come over and have a feast?" he asked, full of hope and enthusiasm. And so they enjoyed the juiciest, most delicious meal ever-courtesy of a few Uber Eats clients. Note from the author: You don't have to spend Thanksgiving alone. Call a friend, join a potluck. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
