Laughter is the best medicine

Just got a call from my Mom who was in the car "cracking up!" I just love it when my mom gets tickled. She starts laughing and it's contagious. Before you know it you're laughing too!!

What set her off tonight was my dad. They were on their way home from Christmas shopping and decided to stop by Baker's Square. My nickname for this restaurant is "The house of pies." It has every conceivable type of pie you could think of. Yup, a literal Pie Mecca or maybe Pie in the Sky. . . . now I'm getting silly. I can't help it!! I'm still tickled myself.

They had been discussing pies in the car. My mom wanted to stop by Baker's Square and get some pies to take to my sister's house. My dad didn't know if they were open. I guess the lighting on the outside of the place was "questionable" so my dad drove up to the front to see if he could peek around and see if anyone was in there. Just about that time he saw a sign by the front and thought it said "reserve pies," which is conceivable I guess. They do reserve pies around the holidays.

What the sign actually said was "reserved parking." He actually didn't see it until my mom pointed it out to him. From that point on it became a laugh fest. He did manage to actually go in and retrieve some pies, while my mom and I continued to laugh on the phone. Oh my y'all if you could have just heard us. I think I actually snorted at one point! Thank goodness I was safe at home in my PJ's, not a soul around to see me laughing. I do think I scared our dog though.

Well, if laughter is the best medicine then my parents and I have had a good dose of it tonight! Yup just what the doctor ordered. Funny how that works, isn't it?

Still laughing and crazy for Christ,
