Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for September 22, 2013

Oh, Val just couldn’t help join in her daughters’ activity of messing with the elderly.

Good one!

I onces read a book myself ……Is a book club something like the anonymous alcoholics for readers?

Holly and Alix getting along – who knew?

My sister once asked my mother if she was born in a log cabin.

I’d like to give those smart aleck girls some books written over 200 years ago. How about Jane Austen’s books, and other classics?

I had my DNA tested. I am 3% Neanderthal.

The Secret Garden was published 102 years ago… Thank you Frances Hodgson Burnett!

I told my 8 year old daughter that the numbers in my age add up to 8. She looked at me with a bright smile and said 80? I’m 35.

Hee hee hee!

Guess who WON’T be getting Christmas presents from grandma this year.

My daughter knows better than to kid me like that (even when the grandkids do it) My kids know that I enjoy sex more than any of them (so now they don’t ask me any more impertinent questions).

Wow Holly went through an entire Sunday strip without looking ticked off.It’s nice seeing mother and daughters getting along even if it involves making fun of their mother/grandmother.

Actually, my mom claimed, she rode the first school bus in the U. S. (Pender County, NC). I’m not going to Google it – will live with the illusion. The kids rode on benches put sideways against the sides in the back of a truck.

Holly knows a book title well enough to make a joke? Must be an alternate universe!

Just wait until the next time the girls want to go shopping!…or Val wants Evie to “babysit”! ;)

Even Val couldn’t resist joining in. xD

My favorites, Sherlock Holmes was written 100+ years ago as well as The Picture of Dorian Gray
