The day before the day

Good morning allayall. Just wanted to say that Tennessee is a freakin' cold state. I also wanted to share a little pre-Thanksgiving happiness in the form of artwork. The above picture is a Turkey that Litkia had to dress in a disguise for Thanksgiving. Her assignment also included writing a story to go along with it, describing how this disguise saved the Turkey from certain demise at the hands of hungry Thanksgiving revelers. She dressed it as a ballerina and in the story, took it to dance class and hid it amongst the many dancers to save it's turkey life. Please note the tiara.

Happy day before the day. Good luck with all the preps!

DO you see the veiled veganism in this assignment? Are you really anti-meat? These are questions you should be asking your daughter's teacher.

Instead, why didn't they ask the kids to dress the turkey up on a plate with all the trimmings that THEY wanted?

I agree with Two Dogs.

I wouldn't read veganism into the assignment --- even the President of the US pardons one turkey each Thanksgiving, a tradition that goes back to when none of knew what a vegan was. Litkia has a great imagination and did a wonderful job! Hope you had a wonderful day!
