Valentine's Day is for .. olives

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2013.02.14

Ken spotted a small candy jar full of the chocolate covered almonds I'd brought home for Mari. I told him they were olives. He held one to his nose and gave it a good sniff and looked at my suspiciously but believed it. We've been enjoying our "olives" and tee-heeing.

I'm not sure this is great parenting?

...and when you try to get some, it surely can be hard. There's always trouble waiting, when you leave your own back yard.
