shari: well, i wasn’t counting the pumpkin cheesecake and chocolate cherry brownies my mom made… that probably pushed me closer to 9500.
vahid: ooooweeee i loves me some cajun penguin!
churlita: i think the skills you taught them will serve them well in life.
hilly: hee – thanks! it was either that, or listen to them tell me about medieval weapons and yugi-oh for another 4 hours.
tracy lynn: actually, their wings are pretty tiny. but a penguin rump roast might be tasty!

Penguins! YUM!
Enormous buffalo style wings is what I’m thinking.

Your grandma is awesome.
When my girls were younger and I got bored on holidays, I taught them how to play poker. I’m a terrible mother.

I never thought about eating a penguin before — but now that you mention it I bet they’d be great cajun style. Thanks for the idea, Jenny’s Grandma!

Only 4,000 calories? Awwwwww Jenny, couldn’t you have just asked for help? I’m sure we all would gladly pitch in to help your family at the holidays, to ensure you the customary Thanksgiving portions of 10,000 calories per person.
(Oh, I ADORE your nephews and their mad diorama skillz!!)

sandra: somehow, i think your advice is far more practical.
brandon: funny. my great great great great grandfather used to say the same thing about dodo bird. said you never did taste any meat quite as tender. god, those were the good old days.

my grandfather says the same thing when we see whooping cranes. but then he gets all quiet and asks, ‘so. are you interested in tasting whooping crane?’
old people are enigmatic. that’s my story, anyway.

God, I’m a terrible aunt — I just taught my niece how to lay down in a way that makes full stomachs hurt less.

anon: i crack up every time i look at me in those glasses, too.
kilax: on many levels, yes, i think they are. so soon enough, i guess we’ll all be thinking about eating penguins.
rhea: it’s a rough life. i think there should be penguin rebellions.
diane: ugh… candyland really brings out the worst in people, doesn’t it?
sizzle: see – you have that to look forward to with your nephew in a few years.
