“Of course you can bring your pet turkey along. In fact, we’ll make the guest of honor! And he can stay for supper on Friday, and lunch on Saturday, and on Sunday, he has to be there as we enjoy a delicious soup.”
A little something to keep in mind as we stuff ourselves Thursday: The first Thanksgiving feast was venison and eel soup – and the holiday was declared to celebrate the annihilation of a whole town (over 600, IIRC) of Native Americans – men, women, and children – without the loss of a single European invader.
