[Sca-cooks] Happy Thanksgiving

[Huette von Ahrens]

Happy Thanksgiving

Twas the night after Thanksgiving
 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 temptations
 with all of my might.
Tossing and turning
 with anticipation,
The thought of a snack
 was infatuation.
So, I raced to the kitchen,
 flung open the door,
And gazed at the fridge,
 full of goodies galore.
I 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 'taters 'n gravy
 have narry a lump.
May your yams be delicious,
 may your pies take the prize,
May your holiday dinner
 stay off of your thighs.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they
shall never cease to be amused.
