the odd things in it are the red okra in the front, right behind them are white and purple eggplant, the red just to the rt of the eggplant are little caribean hot peppers, and the brownish orange to the far rt are poona cukes.

Just keep in mind that in order to maintain a rapport with fellow poultry folks - or just keep the peace and maintain a good rapport with folks in general - that kindness goes a lot farther than bad attitudes.
