Last week Phoebe and I were downstairs when she came up to me carrying this Turkey Beanie Baby.... She told me it was a chicken. I then let her in on a little secret. "Actually that is a Turkey", I said. "They can be very big birds and have pretty feathers. Look." And, I showed her the feathers on the Beanie Baby's wings and tail. I went on to explain that lots of people eat Turkey on Thanksgiving day. The next thing I knew she had gone out to her little play kitchen, plopped that bird into a pan and was cooking it! She turned the burners on and very seriously watched it while it cooked.
When she determined that it was all done cooking she smiled and then promptly served it to me in the pan.
Thank you Chef Phoebe for the pre-Thanksgiving Day Turkey and one of the most funny Hendrickson kid moments this month!
