Well now, Gnomie...you'd best be gettin' yer OWN truths straightened out a bit...*I*, Sassy Soothsayer, do NOT have a parrot, green or otherwise. Where winged creatures are concerned, I prefer MINE with FUR instead of FEATHERS, if'n ye get my drift. It's BATS all the way for a soothsayer, doncha know. Now my twin sister, Miss Marcia, DID have a raggedy ol' green & red parrot livin' with HER for awhile...named Basil, I do believe. But he currently resides with our COUSIN, MMMMarcia, who lives in that sunny peninusla far to the south, where they say palm trees grow & it's warm all year long. And this bein' the case, I don't rightly see how you could have MY parrot, Miss Marcia's parrot, or even MMMMarcia's parrot floating about in yer soup! Better take a closer look and see just what that GREEN critter in there really is! (And by the by, I'll pass on any invitations to dinner tonight, GD. I personally use all MY green critters to create spells & cook up potions and the like, rather than dishin'em up for supper.)
Yours Enchantingly,
Sassy Soothsayer
