Moms know best
[photo by my dad - circa 1977]
mom: i’m going to send you a care package in the mail. is there anything you need?
me: yay! and hmm… no, i don’t think so. normally i would jump at that offer, but i’m home in 33 days!
mom: okay. by the way, are you drinking milk these days?
me: yes. in fact, i could use a cow in the backyard like you used to joke.
*pause*
me: but mom… don’t, uh, send milk in the care package, kay? *nervous laugh*
*another pause*
mom: of course i’m not sending milk in the care package.
i have no idea why she asked, but i should know better than to question where my smarts came from. ; )

Is it me or do you look slight perplexed and amused at the same time? :)

she wanted to know if you still drank milk so she could send you Nestle Quick….”making milk fun!”…however, they don’t seem to sell anything smaller than 1kg tin – too big to send. You will just have to wait a few more weeks to receive this vitamin enriched, nutritious Chocolate Milk Mix.
