         "Why is the dog sitting at the table?"

         "You called everyone for supper. He's hungry, too."

         "I meant my wee animals. Send him to the kitchen."

         "Mom! Carrie gave the dog some turkey."

         "It's some of mine anyway."

         "Mom! Chris is breathing on me!"

         "Chris go sit beside your father."

         "Why does the baby have mashed potatoes in her hair?"

         "Chris told her to wipe her hands."

         'Wait, is Danielle chewing on a wing? She doesn't have any teeth."

         "She just took it. She wanted my fork, but I need it."

         "Is this the canned cranberry sauce? I don't like the chunky stuff Nan made. It has real cranberries, yuck!"

         "Yes, yes it is. See the lines from the can?"

         "Who made the gravy? Wait, is there gravy? It wasn't Mom was it?"

         "I only dropped some of the buns on the floor. Dilly Dog licked one."

         "Does anyone even like turnip?"

         "How many mouthfuls do I hafta eat? Can I give it to Dilly? Look, his mouth's waterin."

         "I'm stuffed, get it?"

         "Does this turkey have a name?"

         "I hafta jump and push the food into my legs. Grandma says that's where it goes into my 'holler' legs."

         "Mom! Danielle is eatin' my napkin."

         "Are you cryin' Mom? Happy tears, huh."
