Who You Calling a Chicken?

One of the best things I've ever done decoratively is use chalkboard paint for our pantry door (on both sides). We used it for allowance tracking, shopping lists, dinner menus, kid fun and holiday pictures. For Thanksgiving I drew a turkey - to the best of my ability. We laughed about it looking like a chicken and not a turkey so I wrote 'gobble, gobble' and 'Who you calling a chicken?' Just had to share as we all got a big kick out of this funny guy.


PS Ali has been really sick all week. She started with a fever on Tuesday when we were in Bratislava. Yesterday we took her to the doctor to learn that she has a horribly red throat with white dots all over, the beginnings of pink eye and a sore looking ear. She didn't get antibiotics as her strep test turned out negative but her week long fever which reached high levels of 103 degrees F was a cause for concern. She received a few drops - one for eye and one for ear and we are keeping a close eye on her. Today she woke up feeling pretty good, with lots of energy, an appetite and no fever so hopefully she's on the mend.
