Audrey, Max, and Zoe
The other day, Audrey asked if she could go and pet the baby chicks downstairs. Who in the world has baby chicks in a suburban flat complex? Answer: My neighbors 2 floors down from us! Oh, and they ended up being ducks. Very cute, but ....yuck! Pet ducks in a flat? Another new one for me. The clincher, was when my neighbors asked if we could take care of them for a week. As my mother would say......do I look like I just fell off a turnip truck?!!
I was trying to figure out why someone would have pet ducks in their house when my friend informed me that this was not uncommon here in Turkey. She said they would raise them in the apartment and then sell them at the local pazar to make money. Hmmmm. Anyone for poached duck?
