What is this on my desk?

[TessB]

Is it a raisin or a dried cranberry?

And who has been in my room?

This is my bedroom.... yes, the computer is in here... There are many suspects in my family... all of them are my children or their boyfriends/ girlfriends.

But... whomever it is....would they have brought raisins or cranberries?

Either way, why would they have left one behind?

Should I bite into it and try and see what it is? Before you answer, know that I am not fond of raisins, particularly.... I can stand them... but they are not something I would choose to eat necessarily.

I, on the other hand, LOATHE cranberries.... which is very unpatriotic of me since my home state is a great manufacturer of those rancid things.
Ocean Spray is in Massachusetts, where I was born and raised. The cranberry, as despicable a tasting fruit or whatever it is, never harmed no one. The cranberry never caused cancer... in fact, I hear people drink cranberry juice to heal urinary tract infections and such.

(subversive alter ego chiming in:
In fact, the only good time I ever had with a cranberry was in tasting something called cranberry bread. But, now, people... let me tell ya... from my experience... you can take something you've hated your whole life.. like cranberries... or zucchini... and make a bread out of it.... and gosh durn it... it's good.

Now.. that don't mean I'm willin to try anythin at all if'n ya call it bread!
I ain't gonna try turd bread or some stuff like that. I just ain't that redneck.

OH! And fer you Brits out thar... this is a feel good thread.... I know I give ya a bunch o ammunishon ta play with as fer as the American redneck theme is cuncerned.... But I's just playin around.

You Brits ain't got the courner on humour, ya know.

)

I've decided to toss it. I'm not brave enough to bite into it. Raisin... cranberry... it really wasn't worth the effort to figure out.

Tess, are you ok? you seem to have gone a little strange, you're speaking like someone from Georgia.

Does it really matter whether it's a cranberry or a raisin? I think you need to get out more honey.

It’s not always raisins and cranberries
It’s thread like this that moves us along

Not sure if it was cranberry wine, but she sure took too much of it.

How on EARTH did you know that?

I guess the subversive alter ego gave me the hint

 

[TessB]

Maybe someone got the memo...
There was a bulletin that used to be passed to new employees here regarding a new type of drug testing being implimented and suggesed that they use the attached bag for a stool sample and leave it on the supervisors desk for collection

...luckily no one took it seriously...

I would LOVE to have the guts enough to put out a bulletin like that.
