Turkey Time

Cooper has a shop on Redbubble. She donates what she makes (after Redbubble takes its cut) to her favorite bird rescues. This is the fourth year she will be adopting a turkey through Farm Sanctuary.

This year Cooper adopted Thelma.

Cooper recommends skipping the turkey this Thanksgiving. It’s all about the sides anyway.
