When Mrs. Finkelman's Mother Was Young

When Mrs. Finkelman's mother was young, you could get a live chick dyed the same color as your shoes for your Easter outfit. Upside: You looked great. Downside: The dye was toxic, and the chick died. Bummer.

That's kind of sad.
When my mother was young, she lived on a farm where she was chased by the chickens. She's still afraid of them now...
