It's important to remember Thanksgiving dinner is an eating marathon not a sprint.
Over the years, I've found one of the biggest rookie mistakes is going HAM on the main course and forgetting to save room for dessert.
Because, let's face it, everyone knows dessert is always the best part of every meal.
