    Not sure I want to know where the seeds came from on that Pillsbury plant.

    My cousin, a definite urbanite, was visiting us. We prepared a salad, and my wife opened the back door, reached into one of the boxes where she raises various herbs and pulled some chives to put on the salad.

    My cousin was aghast and asked “What are you doing?”

    My wife responded, “Putting chives on the salad.”

    His response was, “From the dirt?

    “Where did you think they came from?”

    “A box in the supermarket.”

    Most of us don’t know where our food comes from or how it’s processed. Most of us don’t want to know.

    The Great Crutonic War occurred between 1409 and 1411, which put it almost exactly between lunch and dinner.

    Major beligerants were Poppin’ Fresh, The Hamburger Helper Hand, Chester Cheetah, and back from the obscurity of racial stereotypes, The Freto Bandito, who was instantly attacked by both sides as well as a battery of tight lipped attorneys.

    Neumans Own performed the last rites.
