A conversation with an eight year old  can sometimes have a surprise or two in it:
Shawn:  “Gran J, do you know how to spell Oreo?”
Me: “Yes.”
Shawn: “Then how about putting it on the grocery list.”

Speaking of surprises, there will be a surprise birthday party for Gary “Chop Chop” Norris tonite at Buzzy’s Country Store.  If you are out and about, drop in.
