A CHRISTMAS STORY

The following was shared with us over a lovely dinner at Stone Fire Grill with some very good friends.

We we're going to my husband's mother's house for Christmas dinner. Everyone in the family knows that everything she cooks has no taste. That's not exactly correct, everything she cooks tastes the same. Turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, it's all the same. No variety to awake the palate.

What is a family to do? Well our family makes a quick pit stop in Garden Grove on the way to Grandma's house. Just for a snack. We pulled up to a drive-thru "Taco Bell" to grab a fast bite. The truck in front of us appeared to have ordered and sped around the corner as we pulled up to the speaker box. We waited. "Probably a skeleton crew since it's Christmas, so we'll give them some extra time" said one. We chatted for a bit and then noticed people were intrigued by our behavior. You know, pointing and laughing. Ten minutes had passed before we realized that "Taco Bell" is not open on Christmas Day.

Guess who our very good friends are?
