New concept: mini turkeys for small families. Husband says “isn’t that chickens?” No, it’s mini-turkeys —they would look adorable if they were about the size of basketballs #thanksgiving

Me (eating chips): Hmm…I don’t *think* my plan in coming into the kitchen was to eat chips. I wonder what it was?
