Thanksgiving is next week. If that thought fills you with dread, you might want to check out some of the restaurants and stores selling pre-made meals that you heat up at home.

Many restaurants are also open Thanksgiving Day. I provide some examples here, but it's not a comprehensive list. I suggest calling your favorite restaurant to see if it's open for Thanksgiving.

And whether you're dining at a restaurant or bringing a meal home, remember to make reservations ahead of time since demand is high.
