Honey

I bought a large quantity of honey at Hannaford's yesterday. The lady at the checkout smiled and told me how she gets "raw honey" from people she knows in New Boston, who tap their own trees for it.

I am really glad this lady doesn't work in produce.

Funny. And there are many people that believe food originates at the grocery store.

Those bees must get mighty pissed off when their honeycombs get boiled down.

I would like to see that lady try to grapple with "pasteurization."

My verification is "flantini," which sounds like a desserty cocktail you get at one of those party that's 94% preparation and 1% fun (the remaining percentages vary from party to party). I begin to suspect that the companies that make these verification words are trying harder to make them more word-like, since people seem to like that.

Let me guess -- is she pregnant with octoplets?

How would you rate her on the cognitive ability scale with this woman?
