Now THIS is a collab we could get behind, although we are scared it might lead to us having our office replaced with one made entirely out of chocolate.

Someone stop him he’s made pizza out of chocolate. Is nothing sacred to him?

The chef who is credited with the Peking Ravioli thing is Joyce Chen, and she sure did have her own show on WGBH back in the day. You can watch her make Peking Ravioli here, and if you want to try the recipe for yourself, we've got it on our website here.

I'm still trying to wrap my brain around Peking Ravioli after two weeks of knowing about this Boston colloquialism.

fun fact the lottery system as we know it is low key massachusetts' fault and we did a whole podcast about it called Scratch & Win which you can put into your earballs right here (or anywhere you normally listen to podcasts)

we also have this free documentary about turkeys in MA, it really is that much of a Thing

So I'm walking around Cambridge, MA today and I see this sign outside a church:

And I'm like lol "feed the birds" need not apply here and took this photo thinking I'd share it with @todaysbird, but then my partner tugged on my sleeve and pointed, and RIGHT behind me was this:

So, uh. Either someone ignored the sign and gave alms to our Lord and Savior Turkey, or the turkeys didn't give a TOSS about the lack of communion bread in this 'burgh cause they are HERE.

Also I made them nervous coming over to take pictures, I am ashamed.

Some day I'll be normal about seeing turkeys in the wild, but man, today is NOT that day. 🦃
