I've never seen this before but I will look for it. I also like this healthy #ginger kombucha drink. It's pretty spicy but very tasty.

The shape of that #cloud formation looks like the head of the teacher character from Pink Floyd's "The Wall" film. 🤨😜

We like #turkey in #Canada very much... & a month and a half earlier! 😉🦃

As far as most people who eat meat are concerned, they like turkey, but as long as someone else is cooking it simply because of the effort required. Yet again, another aspect of common life experiences in which JD has no clue.

For context, here is a copy of my appeal:
