    I have a poem today about manners -- equally applicable to yesterday's feasting and today's shopping:

    Hi, Becky. Thanks for hosting. Because we're enjoying T-day leftovers, I'm sharing a pie poem. But it's also a Pi poem -- every line corresponds to a digit in Pi. Clever Loreen Pelletier is the poet.

    I've posted a poem called "The Day After", as a sort of "poke to self" to remember there are billions of hungry people in the world.
