grain-fed
Legs. That’s what they called her. She packed the grinder, her six kids and a bag of barley and headed for a hollow in the hills of Kentucky. Three thousand miles and no food save for some milk souring in her oft-trampled bosom. On arrival, she clamped the metal contraption to a beam that held up the dirt floor cabin, fattened the fire. Her upright children whipped the handle one by one to see who could fill a bread pan full of flour fastest. Pancakes griddled on the wood stove. Legs boiled down sorghum from the cane she had harvested in the fields. After feasting, her heavily biceped offspring hoisted themselves through the glassless windows and leapt into the woods.

Wild Turkey Cocktail Ring
Lately, I love accessorizing with oversized and over the top rings. The bigger the better! When I saw this fabulous handmade glass ring, I immediately thought Thanksgiving. The beautiful touch of turquoise mixed with browns, and the setting has just enough shimmer to make it even more delicious. The hand-cut glass incasing looks as if it is magnifying a feather, which made even more appropriate for all of this talk around the studio about American Turkeys!
