                                                          1   bag of fresh cranberries
                  Squash gossip
               Squash indifference                        3 apples
                Squash grumbling
                                                          1   20 oz can crushed pineapple

        Because you reap what you sow.

                Thyme for friends
                Thyme for family.
Happy Thanksgiving American Spirit Club Friends!
