TWAS THE NIGHT OF THANKSGIVING,
BUT I JUST COULDN'T SLEEP.
I TRIED COUNTING BACKWARDS,
I TRIED COUNTING SHEEP.
THE LEFTOVERS BECKONED -
THE DARK MEAT AND WHITE,
BUT I FOUGHT THE TEMPTATION
WITH ALL OF MY MIGHT.
TOSSING AND TURNING WITH ANTICIPATION,
THE THOUGHT OF A SNACK BECAME INFATUATION.
SO, I RACED TO THE KITCHEN, FLUNG OPEN THE DOOR,
AND GAZED AT THE FRIDGE, FULL OF GOODIES GALORE.
GOBBLED UP TURKEY AND BUTTERED POTATOES,
PICKLES AND CARROTS, BEANS AND TOMATOES.
I FELT MYSELF SWELLING SO PLUMP AND SO ROUND,
'TIL ALL OF A SUDDEN, I ROSE OFF THE GROUND.
I CRASHED THROUGH THE CEILING, FLOATING INTO THE SKY,
WITH A MOUTHFUL OF PUDDING AND A HANDFUL OF PIE.
BUT, I MANAGED TO YELL AS I SOARED PAST THE TREES....
HAPPY EATING TO ALL - PASS THE CRANBERRIES, PLEASE.
MAY YOUR STUFFING BE TASTY,
MAY YOUR TURKEY BE PLUMP.
MAY YOUR POTATOES 'N GRAVY HAVE NARY A LUMP.
MAY YOUR YAMS BE DELICIOUS.
MAY YOUR PIES TAKE THE PRIZE,
MAY YOUR THANKSGIVING DINNER STAY OFF OF YOUR THIGHS!!

I wondered if anyone wold click on the paint, but cool that the brand is a name of your chicken
Ruby was a pretty girl from the day we got her from Pastrymama a couple months back and has just gotten better looking since becoming mature and laying. When she is in a nest box it looks like someone stuffed her in as it is plumb full of feathers wits a beak and eyes
She was shy at first and was picked on by the Dominique hens and EE we got with her so she defected to the other flock where she is queen bee now and if her former tormenters get too close she fluffs up and goes after them, funny stuff there.
She has become the family favorite hen even though cuddling and pampering by the kids is not her cup of tea and she will have none of that....
edit because I am competing with Mikey for most edits....
oh bill, thanks for posting that pic of ruby. i can't believe you remembered the name i gave her! yes, she was always a gorgeous girl, but the kids preferred her brother who had the misfortune of falling in the pool while we were in mexico this summer
max was the cuddler, not ruby and the kids tried to make her so, but as yours have found out, she will have none of it! but i am willing to bet she will be a good broody. glad to hear she has found her place as she was so sad when max drowned.
those white ones, they are delawares(not dominiques, but it's ok, you call them whatever you want
) they are my favorites, just not heat tolerant for phoenix
Oh OK... Too many new names these days, used to be rocks, reds, and leghorns was all I had to remember
I am not as up on all these names and different types of chickens and the internet has really opened my eyes to a world of different chicken breeds I never knew existed. You folks have some amazing birds to be sure...
Least I remembered they started with a "D"
Guess it never seemed important as long as they were laying eggs. Ruby is the first chicken I have ever had that has feathers on it's feet and I been round chickens most of my life

TURKEY RECIPE
I thought this sounded good! Here is a turkey recipe that also includes the use of popcorn as a stuffing ingredient -- imagine that. When I found this recipe, I thought it was perfect for people like me, who just are not sure how to tell when turkey is thoroughly cooked, but not dried out.
Give this a try.
1 - 15 lb. turkey
1 cup melted butter
1 cup stuffing (Pepperidge Farm is Good)
1 cup un-popped popcorn (ORVILLE REDENBACHER'S LOW FAT IS BEST)
Salt/pepper to taste
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Brush turkey well with melted butter, salt,and pepper.
Fill cavity with stuffing and the un-popped popcorn. Place turkey in baking pan making sure the neck end is toward the front of the oven, not the back.
After about 4 hours listen for the popping sounds.
When the turkey's butt blows the oven door open and the bird flies across the room,.... it's done.
And, you thought I didn't know how to cook...

My poor little banty wants to be a mommy and I don't have fertile eggs to give her. She's sitting on a rock, poor girl.
