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

Dearest Aunt Ermintrude, Thank you so much for your thoughtful (and thought-provoking!) gift. A rooster-shaped maple syrup dispenser is something I never would have thought to purchase for myself, but now that I own one, I'm finding it, well, indispensable. It's the Platonic Form of kitsch beyond even my wildest dreams. Take care.
