For your birthday, your aunt gave you a maple syrup dispenser shaped like a rooster. Please write her a thank-you note:

Dear Aunt Vee, I LOVE the rooster! I can't wait to have you over for a French Toast breakfast. (Remember my secret ingredient... entice you, entice you!) I think Rooster represents a resounding wake-up call. It's absolutely time that you come over for a visit. Much love ~Wren
