And sometimes blog fodder just falls right into your lap

Last night, two of my students, Jane and Tarzan, spent the night with us. They belong to my friend who has stage 4 ovarian cancer. She has an early, early doctor appointment in another town.

It has been interesting having the TV on the Disney channel again. Who the heck are the Wiggles?

This morning as I was picking out clothes for the adventures we are having today, this was the conversation that took place.

Jane: "We have some of those Canine Carryouts, too."

Me: "Yeah? Is that a toy?"

Jane: "Noooo. They are dog treats. You have some on the counter for your dog."

Me: "Oh. I didn't realize they were called that."

Jane: "Well, ours are exactly like yours. Except ours are bacon flavored."

Tarzan (playing on the computer): "They are delicious!"

Me (looking at Jane for clarification because surely he only heard the bacon part of this conversation): "Huh?"

Jane (nodding her head): "Yeah. He eats them. About three a day."

It is going to be an AWESOME day!
