This is great, Sara! Like all good haikus, you pack a ton of imagery into a few short lines. I also love the humour of the last part.

Love the line "chilling" out. I anticipated the last line to be "out cold". Very fun read. Great job. Happy Thanksgiving.

Very cute--"chilling out". Sara, you gave me a great complement today--it means a lot to me. Your comment tells me something about you--you are the genuine article! Rare in today's world but very very refreshing! You are still very young at heart!
