CB, we all thank you for the kindness to all of us. I know, it is a bit presumptuous for me to try to speak for others; but I think I know how others not online at the moment feel--which is, thank you!

We went to MickeyDeez today. Helen had a couple of McLugnuts and a pilfered bite or two of daddy's Big Mac. Spouse wheedled a few extra packs of sweet&sour sauce off the very nice counter guy and placed them in her jacket. A few minutes later, she decided that Helen would benefit from a vanilla frogurt cone. She reached into her pocket and simultaneously uttered some severe "night-night language" and produced a strange-looking dollar bill. She had sat on five packets of Sweet&Sour Sauce. I couldn't stop laughing. Spouse was quite annoyed with herself. After a bit of "money laundry" in the ladies'room, she used a damp dollar to buy the cone. Once home, I took her jacket onto the lawn and prepped it with the garden hose. I'll tell you, reaching into that besauced pocket to see if anything not hoseworthy was in there was really something. Like picking a hippo's nose. Thick yellow stuff halfway up my arm. And y'know what? Two of the five sauce packs were crinkled but still sealed. I cleaned them up and counted them a "save".
