We stopped at a market today during our drive, because I had such a taste for something sweet.
At the counter, the owner had sitting there a container of these new wafer crisp cookies made with Oreos. It was like a Kit-Kat only an Oreo cookie version.
So many times I ask the obvious and I usually end up kicking myself for it later...
"So, are these any good?" I ask, pointing to the container of wafer Oreo cookies.
"Well, of course they are...
...We tasted them.
...We thought they tasted good.
...We thought others might like them too.
...So we bought them and put them for sale in our market here..."
"Oh yeah...I do suppose you wouldn't be selling them if you didn't think they tasted good."
I hate it when I ask ridiculous questions.
And my husband thought it was quite comical too and reminded me of probably the most embarassing time I asked an obvious question.
We had traveled to Disney World and as luck would have it, one of Disney's long time illustrators was there drawing for people. He started working for Walk Disney with the movie Snow White and worked continually up through The Jungle Book. Then his neice took his place on the illustrator team. Pretty cool I thought.
There was a long, and I do mean VERY long, line of people waiting to talk with this great artist. We had waited for I don't know how long...and when it was our turn to have him draw for us and to have our prized conversation, there were easily 100 people waiting patiently behind us for their turn.
As we watched the man draw a picture of Snow White and the Seven Dwarves for us, I asked...
"So... You like to draw?"
Sigh. Sometimes I don't know why such silly things roll off my tongue. My husband is still brought to tears with laughter when he recollects this event in our past.
I'm good for humor if nothing else in this life.

Yes, my husband finds me very amusing, too. I can come out with the dumbest things sometimes. Things I'm not about to admit! Not today anyway. And not for free!
