When I was a little girl, there was a very talented lady called Nita Johnston at our church. Every few years she wrote a musical for all us kids to perform. There is one song that still sticks with me more than 30 years later, from the musical about the prodigal son. The song was very catchy, and is about when the son returns home – a song of joy and celebration. My recollection of the chorus of this song is as follows:<\/p>\n
Kill the fatted calf,
\nKill the old red rooster!
\nI’m as happy and as joyful
\nAs ever I could be.
\nKill the fatted calf,
\nKill the old red rooster,
\nFor my son has returned to me!<\/p><\/blockquote>\nThe last bit about the son returning to me doesn’t really apply, but the joy and celebration of the rest of it is a great expression of how I feel about this tablecloth! No doubt it will be stuck in my head for the rest of the day now, and I won’t mind a bit!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
