  • Covering the Bird

    We visited our newly married daughter, who was preparing her first Thanksgiving dinner. I noticed the turkey thawing in the kitchen sink with a dish drainer inverted over the bird. I asked why a drainer covered the turkey.

    Our daughter turned to my wife and said, “Mom, you always did it that way.”

    “Yes,” my wife replied, “but you don’t have a cat!”
