Preparing for Thanks-giving
On the way to Thanksgiving, one’s thoughts turn to . . . turkey! And other good things to eat, of course, and the importance of learning to see the glass as–not half full–but full to overflowing! My cup runneth over . . . .
Now, a bit of questionable inspiration–a limerick:
A variegated bird is the peacock, / His lineage is in no way commonstock. / But guess my amazement, / When I heard the appraisement / That peacock tastes just like turkey-hock!
That, many years ago, was the discovery of Christian workers in India who sought a suitable substitute for the Thanksgiving bird.

Mine too. Very impressed with the limerick!
