A holiday conversation

Me: What will we be having to eat at Thanksgiving this year?

My Mother: Fish. And Cauliflower.

Me: Ew.

My Mother: Also Okra and Squash.

Me: And Red Licorice for dessert?

My Mother: Do you like Red Licorice?

Me: Hate it.

My Mother: Then that's what we're having. We'll stuff the turkey with it.

Me: So, we're having turkey?

My Mother: Nope. We're having fish. The dogs will eat the turkey.

Me: Oh.

My Mother: I figure I've had enough being thankful. This year, we're going to resent everything we have.

Me: Sounds like a plan.
