A Strange Thanksgiving Menu

We went shopping for Thanksgiving food this weekend and got a smoking deal on the turkey! WinCo was having a special if you spent $50, so a 19.7 lb turkey only cost us $3.55. We've had fun planning out a somewhat strange menu to help the announcement. We're going to have baby shrimp for an appetizer. It will be kinda hard to dip such tiny shrimp, but that's the point. We're going to fix steamed baby carrots, and we're also making a salad with baby greens and baby corn. We may throw in something else, but we may just leave it weird with only baby corn in it.
I found a recipe for a Baby Ruth Layer Cake which takes 14 Baby Ruth candy bars! I'm also baking individual mini pumpkin pies instead of a couple large ones. If no one gets it, we'll finish with homemade fortune cookies with hints like, "A hidden surprise is near you," "A big secret will soon be revealed," "Summertime will bring new experiences," and "You will soon receive a new title of honor." If that doesn't work, we'll just have to be out with it. We'll see who's sharp and willing to ask the question.
