December 5

I had to bake cookies for tomorrow evening, and was none too pleased to realize --when I started to bake said-cookies tonight-- that we were out of eggs. So I summoned my usual shopping partner and we headed over to Safeway.

She followed me around the store sharing her usual witticisms, and then got into the physical comedy act by loading up on cans of her favorite chicken noodle soup. My girl cracks me up, and I am grateful for her wit.
