Dream Entry*
February 20, 2005
My friends and I have gathered for Thanksgiving dinner. I’ve been seated at the kid’s table with three beagle puppies. Through the frosted dining room window I see Norman and a duck in the front yard. They’ve built a table out of snow and are serving snow turkey, snow cranberry sauce, and snow pie to an Abominable Snowman.
“Let’s eat,” Bigfoot says.
Penny leaves the room and returns with the Thanksgiving Day turkey. She directs him to sit at the head of the table. He picks up a gleaming serving spoon and dips everybody a heaping bowl of pistachio ice cream. After we’ve eaten our ice cream and our side orders of fries, the Thanksgiving Day turkey asks us each to tell what we’re thankful for. When it’s my turn, I can’t speak because my mouth is full of mashed potatoes.

I really need to learn to open my Goodreads TBR list before I come here. You always have great books I want to add to my virtual shelf.
Kelly, I had a premonition that you’ll remember next time.
