It's Taco Time!

My granddaughter and I love tacos. She prefers soft tacos but I prefer the hard shells. We have tacos at least once a month. I generally cook up enough meat for us to get a couple of meals out of it, and maybe a snack or two.

About four years ago, there was a promotion advertised on the packages. Send in X number of UPC codes from specially marked boxes and you could get a free taco scarf. I showed it to my granddaughter.

‘You’re not going to get it, are you?’ she asked. I raised my eyebrows and smiled. I did not hear a question, I heard a challenge. So naturally, I ordered one. When it arrived, I proudly showed it to her.

‘You’re not going to actually wear it, are you?’ she queried. Once again, I did not hear a question, I heard a challenge. I smiled sweetly and all she could do was roll her eyes. She knew that I was going to wear it. And I do wear it every day when the weather is cold, to this very day.
