Thanks

From a local PA paper, Thanksgiving at the homes of Kindergarten kids.


We do not have turkey on Thanksgiving because you can't buy them around here. Instead, we have biscuits and brisket. We put apple butter and regular butter on the biscuits. We cook them in the oven for 20 minutes on warm. Brisket is made out of cow (all sorts of parts of the cow). Men take knives and kill the cow. They open it up and cut the all sorts of parts out with a knife. We have cider to drink. They sell the brisket at a store downtown. My dad is going to cook the brisket on a smoker. They put the smoker outside because it puts too much smoke inside. it has a whistle. He starts it up by charcoal. We dip it in barbecue sauce or ranch. He cooks it for about 20 minutes. While the brisket is cooking, he gets on the computer to do all sorts of stuff like check his emails. He also watches Discovery Channel. I love my dad because he cooks our Christmas dinner.

And wouldn't the Conservation cops love to read this one?


God makes turkeys up in heaven. He uses meat to make them. Jesus helps him. God flies down with the turkeys and brings them to Pennsylvania. God lets the turkeys go in the woods. He goes back up in heaven. He tells the turkeys "bye" after he lets them go.

My Mom and Meme cook our turkey. Pappy takes Mom and Meme into the woods with his gun. Mom and Meme can't shoot one because they don't have a hunting license. He always shoots one "dad" turkey. Blood comes out of the turkey. My pappy cleans it up with wipes. They put it in the back of the truck and cover it up so the cops don't see it. They wait until it's dark to bring the turkey in so nobody sees them. Meme stuffs the turkey with a rag. She cooks it in the oven for 10 minutes on the 12th temperature.

I hope everyone here will have as great a Thanksgiving as these kids will have.
