Makes me think ...CreekHiker - Umm, Cracker Barrel. Makes me think of chicken-fried steak and mashed potatoes. All that artery-clogging stuff I love.<br /><br />Nan16, thanks for reminding me that my grackle experience could be a lot worse.<br /><br />Janet, they didn't wipe their feet, but you should have seen Kadi tiptoeing through the grackle droppings.<br /><br />Joy, I think you're right that they're taking over the world. It's too bad that baking "4 and 20 blackbirds" in a pie went out of fashion.Linda@VShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04499621332375290781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21612081.post-41698524638653538352010-10-28T06:00:39.759-05:002010-10-28T06:00:39.759-05:00Grackles must be taking over the world!
