Well, thanks to our recent computer malfunctions, I never did share any pictures of our Thanksgiving. But I am not going to bore you with pictures of tasty turkey…
Ha!!! I lulled you into a false sense of security and then, bam! A picture of tasty turkey… sort of… those are some snacks my wife made. They are cinnamon rolls with bacon feathers, candy eyes, candy corn beaks and red licorice wattles…
Wait, wattles, that is what those weird, dangly things under a turkey’s chin are called, right? Anyway, you know I had to put my own spin on it, so the next day, I turned my breakfast snack from a turkey to a rattlesnake…
Because I am an artist… and I wanted to eat the bacon first…
Now most of you who have been here for a while know that whenever we spend Thanksgiving at my wife’s aunt and uncle’s house, just 30 or so miles North of San Diego, we always walk after we eat and visit the ranch just up the road. They have horses… and a donkey… and stuff. That is Pongo up there, one of my favorites. But I met a new horse this time.
Is that a beautiful horse or what?
She was a little shy, but you know I got her to come over and let me pet her with a little patience. And now, just to finish up, a random, gratuitous picture of Willie, who came over to our house the day after Thanksgiving, to decorate some cookies.
Pouring My Art Out 
That horse reminds me of a dalmation!
I know, right?
That’s a pretty horse, is it what they call pie-bald? Looks like a dalmation. Did Willy eat the head off of that gingerbread man, or was that you?
Yes it is…I don’t know… yes it does… It might have been me…
wow those rolls are awesome…way to go Art’s wife!!!
Oh yeah
That horse is beautiful. Wow Willy’s really gotten big! Now I’m hungry!
You can’t eat Willie…
Okay
ok
I think you should put an oversized bacon turkey on top of your Christmas tree as an angel.
I like that idea.
I feel so much safer now. I could give in to my urge to hug and more than likely survive every encounter here! ;D
yes… especially if you hug me… HA!
I would you know. In a heartbeat!
yay
Love the turkeys and your little boy is adorable!
Thanks, and he isn’t even my kid… I have two older daughters who are also adorable…
Those are ingenious snacks, but the salty/sweet mix makes me think either you’re pregnant/pms-ing/or you have a calcium/magnesium deficiency. Artistically clever snack though.
Can’t I be both?>?>?
Shoot for the stars, my friend.
I do
Just don’t shoot the stars, especially Robert DeNiro.
I never would
that’s good, il mio paesano!
Ich bin ien tortellini
das ist gut
das boot is afloot, yah!
voulais vous…wait, never mind
j’dor le fromage qe pu
Des oeufs dans votre chapeau
and once again… simmer down… even though I know I started it.
you’re an artagonizer
whoops… I have to go pick up Mollie from school… I will be back in a flush… uh… flash
drive safe, wipe clean
forget I just said that
Awesome turkeys! Well, your wife should know – she married one! Bwahahaha!
sigh
Aw, I wanna go pet a pony! And then I wanna eat a turkey/snake biscuit.
(And will those cookies be coming in the mail soon? Did Willie autograph a couple of them?)
oooh… we could totally market Willie-signed Christmas cookies…
I want a percentage for coming up with the idea.
His parents might want a cut too.
He’s so cute that I’m sure there will be plenty to go around.
We need a business license, and shipping facilities, a large bakery with industrial ovens, and investors.
I’ll leave all that to your expertise.
I am all art-side-of-the-brain… I have no real life skills.
Awesome creativity on the yummy side, very nice
and horses…
Horses are lovely, fun, sometimes messy and stinky critters.
Well, the same can be said for most men I know…
Those bacon turkeys look amazing! I want one 🙂
yeah you do
Okay, maybe it’s me, but while those tasty turkey treats looks mahvelous, dahling, and no doubt taste scrumptious — and kudos to your wife for her artistic and culinary capabilities — they might just be a heart attack waiting to happen. But what the hell? It’s the holiday season and you only live once, right? You can diet after the holidays.
Live and let diet
O Wow’s your wife really has a talent for pretty snakes…. those bacon thingies look awesome.
snacks not snakes stupid spell check….
It was funnier the other way
uh… she does like pretty snakes… HA!
