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

Dear Auntie: Thank you for the imaginative gift. How did you know I like to "crow" about my homemade maple syrup? I'll certainly send you a supply as soon as we replace the trees we lost in the ice storm. Warmest Regards your nephew
