The Oxford Dictionary of Quotations defines esprit de l'escalier as, "An untranslatable phrase, the meaning of which is that one only thinks on one's way downstairs of the smart retort one might have made in the drawing room."

Happy Thanksgiving

Gobble gobble

Last year at Christmas, my family was at a Shaker farm outside of Lexington, KY. We were intimidated by an overly aggressive turkey. This was not it. This was a fairly normally socialized turkey at Brass Farm about a month or so ago.  He's been waiting to wish you all a happy Thanksgiving.

Anyhow, I hope everyone has a good holiday. Unfortunately my siblings can't join us, so I hope they eat well and have a good day. They will be missed.
