To me, Thanksgiving Day reminds me of the “Turkeyphobia” in the last year – turkey recipes for 7 consecutive days, turkey cold cut, turkey sandwiches, turkey casseroles, turkey pastas, turkey salads, turkey fried rice, and even turkey congee.
So this year we had chicken instead of turkey for the celebration of Thanksgiving Day.
Every time when I listen to the song “I am woman” from Sex and the City 2, my son will echo with “I am chicken……” Finally, I know what he meant. Finally, I know I shouldn't have scolded him in the first place.
Sesame Street
I am chicken
I am chicken, hear me squawk Hear me crow and hear me bawck Watch me rule my roost And strut around my coop People say I've got great legs And they're nuts about my eggs And when they're sick they gobble down my soup
Oh yes, I am proud Of the way I peck and scratch I am plump, I am loud Just don't count me 'till I hatch I'm nutritious, I am pure, I'm delicious, I'm cocksure I am tender, I'm exceptional I am chicken!
I am chicken I'm not scared 'Cause I'm always well prepared And I feed all kinds of people every day [ Sesame Street Lyrics are found on www.findlyrics.com ] I can cackle with the best And I'll tackle any test Showing even when I'm down, I'm still Grade A
Oh no, I'm no dumb cluck And I won't throw in the towel I'm no turkey, I'm no duck I'm the fairest of the fowl I am tasteful to the end I'm your finest feathered friend I am plucky, I'm unflappable, I am chicken!
background singing chickens: She is tender, she is loud, She is plucky, she is proud She's delicious, she is pure She's nutritious, she's cocksure She can cook and she is chic And we love her wings and beak repeat
I am not sure when did I watch this movie with my dearest friends but I am sure we did have fun that day.
Sex And The City 2
I am woman
I am woman, hear me roar In numbers too big to ignore And I know too much to go back and pretend 'Cause I've heard it all before And I've been down there on the floor No one's ever gonna keep me down again Oh yes, I am wise But it's wisdom born of pain Yes, I've paid the price But look how much I gained If I have to, I can do anything I am strong I am invincible I am woman
You can bend but never break me 'Cause it only serves to make me More determined to achieve my final goal And I come back even stronger Not a novice any longer 'Cause you've deepened the conviction in my soul Oh yes, I am wise But it's wisdom born of pain Yes, I've paid the price But look how much I gained If I have to, I can do anything I am strong I am invincible I am woman I am woman, watch me grow See me standing toe to toe As I spread my loving arms across the land But I'm still an embryo With a long long way to go Until I make my brother understand Oh yes, I am wise But it's wisdom born of pain Yes, I've paid the price But look how much I gained If I have to, I can face anything I am strong I am invincible I am woman
