Squash Geese

Most everyone has traditions they have developed over the years for their holiday celebrations. The Soup Lady's old friend Dave makes his now-famous Thanksgiving Geese.

This bird suffered from too long a cocktail hour.
"One of the finest traditions in our family are the Thanksgiving Geese made from yellow squash and carrots that grace our table every year. The kids love to help starting with the shopping ... Our tradition concludes the day after Thanksgiving when we line the little geese up in a steamer and "boil them alive". "

Go here for the complete story, including instuctions on how to make your own. Go at your own risk, of course. The Soup Lady does not approve of the ghastly music you will be plagued with over there, but if little water fowl made out of vegetables are your sort of thing, then it is worth the pain of listening to a "Golden Slippers" played on a comb and tissue paper.
