secret agent

It's like having a secret agent in the house. I doubt the conversation between Benjamin and Heather would have happened in front of their mother. Yet, there was have it, a couple of brokers discussing a deal right before their secret agent of an aunt. Thanks Caren for sharing. It's part of what makes this blog so much fun!!! I, on the other hand, am gearing up for a twelve hours drive to Vegas. It's a beautiful trip, but a touch long. Oh, for the love of airplanes.
Let me also quickly add my smell to the list of others. Grandma Tobler's house. I certainly can't pinpoint the smell and the smell that I remember from my childhood, did not follow my Grandma to her new place next door to mom and dad. But I remember that Grandma's house had that unique smell that was not found anywhere else and that I always associated with Grandma and not Grandpa even though he lived there as well. Sometimes I still catch the scent, especially when Grandma bakes roast. Which brings me to taste- because for whatever reason, Grandma's food always had a unique taste as well, very good, of course, but unique!!!!
