“Mmmmm,” Andy savored the forkful of quail in his mouth. The menu had said it was served with Sauce Chasseur and he could see and taste the shallots and mushrooms, the tomato sauce; probably puree; could taste the wine in it but what was the herb, basil or parsley?

“Do you think the chef would tell what herbs he used in the sauce?” he whispered to Simon.
Simon just raised an eyebrow at him, “Yeah, probably not.”

“Personally I like my quail fresher than this,” Simon answered.

“Shhh. The server could hear you. Fresher?”

“Still in its shell,” Simon smiled.

So the Texas Library Association Conference is this week

My Librarian is leaving me to go to this conference in Houston.
Librarians in our school district are emailing back and forth about it. Normally this would be trying to carpool *snickers* a ride down to save on gas and it costs $30 A DAY to park down there.

And then this showed up as the subject on some of the emails:

“Tell me you’re not going to wear that thing.”

Andy looked down at the shirt on their bed smiling. “Actually, no. It’s for you. Mom bought it for you.”

What have I ever done to her to earn that… ?”

“Simon, it’s a shirt. You know what a shirt is. I know you do,” Andy maintained a straight face for about 10 seconds before breaking into a grin. “Mom got it just for you, she likes you.”

“Hates me, more like.” He picked up the tag and read, “’For my baby boy. Love, Mom.’
“HEY!”

Laughing Andy made his escape.
