    Nothing like the sound of food squeaks to bring a smile to my face. Were the asparagus stalks a big hit, I saw those in Brookshire’s, they were huge? Who was Jamie kissing at the end of the video, the grabbing of the chin was wonderful to watch? Thanks for the great video.

      That was Foxie and Jamie at the end ;-). The brussels spouts on stalks were a big hit!

    now THAT’s thanks giving! loved the sweet exchange between foxie and jamie. i saw brussels sprouts stalks in the grocery store this year for the first time and had no idea what they were (such a city girl), so when i saw them in your still pictures the other day i went WOW what a great idea for the chimpsters. thanks to all of you who actively participate in making all the days for the seven something special

    Was that Missy peeling a sweet potato with her teeth? Clever girl. I loved that big Wahoo food call from Burrito?? It was quite obvious that the chimp really liked this party.

      That was Jody using her teeth as a peeler. I love that part, and the next segment with the way Foxie is sitting with her arms crossed holding pomegranate pieces in each hand.
