Leif spent the day alternately declaring that "I LOVE turkey!" and "I don't like turkey." At dinnertime, he was in an "I don't like turkey" phase.

Except this time he said, for no reason that I know of, "I don't like turkey, except I like Chinese turkey!"

We told him our turkey was a Chinese turkey, and he happily ate it.

When my daughter, Lisa, was Leif's age, she would insist that she HATED turkey but loved "big chicken". In our house, turkey was called big chicken for many years. I wonder where he got the idea of Chinese turkey?

literal translation of the chinese name for turkey is "fire chicken". I don't know why
