The Sunday Funnies

We discussed something that led me to say, "Patience pays off!"  "That book The Eleventh Hour said something like that," Dorothy responded thoughtfully.  "It said 'Patience pays off?'" I asked.  "No," she explained, "it said, 'Those who choose the longer road shall reap their reward!'"

Dorothy saw a coffee shop called The Daily Grind and asked what that meant.  Grace said, "You grind your coffee beans.  It's also a pun.  Do you know what a pun is?"  "Yes," Dorothy quickly answered, "and what is the other meaning of grind that makes it funny?"

We got-together with family friends that we haven't seen in over a year.  Dorothy sidelined me and asked, "Why does it seem like all these people know me?"

Dorothy read this entire book this morning. Despite her scowl, I think she enjoyed it.

Dorothy and I played a card game, and when it was over, I said, "That was fun.  You're a good partner."  "Not your partner," she clarified, "You mean your competitor."

I reminded Dorothy that my adult cousin still has a baby tooth.  "Maybe the Tooth Fairy will bring her a dishwasher," she joked.

Dorothy watched Brian make a bourbon pie.  When it came out of the oven, she said sadly, "Too bad I can't eat it because it's a beer pie."

The Sunday Funnies

Dorothy watches a show about a little girl who acts as the detective for a queen.  Out of the blue, Dorothy suggested, "Mira should get paid because she's the royal detective."

We had delicious turtle candies which were dark chocolate topped with sea salt.  Dorothy may have been the first to taste them, and she announced to the group, "There's something you need to know!  This sugar is salt!"
