My mom and sisters have heard Big G's version of the first Thanksgiving. It was so cute I thought I would share it with the bloggy world. It isn't verbatim, but it's close.
"The King wouldn't let us pray, so he put us on the Mayflower and shipped us here. We built houses out of wood and nails. The Indians showed us how to cook chickens on a stick. They showed us how to plant corn by putting fish in the ground. Then we had a long winter and ate 90 plates of food".
When asked how to prepare a Thanksgiving meal, he responded:
"Put on your boggin and boots. Get on the four wheeler and ride up the mountain. Shoot and turkey and yank its feathers out, because they don't taste good. Then mom will put some butter on it and cook it for 6 minutes".
Apparently, he has begun to notice that my secret ingrediant is always butter. Oh well, no one is complaining!
Happy Thanksgiving to all. May your fishy corn and 6 minute Turkey be everything you dreamed of!
