today i did NOT participate in the genocide of innocent turkeys.
my employer even supplied several for a thanksgiving feast for us, their employees. a nice gesture… but one i easily refrained from. i still enjoyed QUITE a feast with many wonderful casserole dishes, yams, pumpkin pies, etc.
this picture caught my attention because when i was young, on the farm, i had a pet turkey named HENRIETTA. i loved her dearly. she would often come for affection and hugs. when she was small i’d walk around with her on my shoulder. hehe… when she grew up that could no longer happen! i did, when i could get away with it, sneak her into the house and she would sit on the back of my chair and watch TV with me.
today… i remember her and i miss her.
here is a website that has a great concept: MEATLESS MONDAY
even if you will not try to be a vegetarian… we ALL know that the reduction of meat in our diet is VERY good for us. this site’s concept is simply… no meat on monday!
crazy about turkeys like i am? ADOPT A TURKEY!
they YOU TOO can have your own precious “henrietta.”
