Wasteline

Cal Flitter dumps litter in haste, Ms Witherspoon savors the taste of fast food, she'll throw trash out her window. Cal or Reese are just bad for the waste. Written 23 Nov 2020

Thank you for the multiple visits this week, Paul. It's always a treat to hear from you. I'm much better at avoiding littering than I am avoiding calories - especially with all the great cooks and bakers I'm related to! Enjoy your Christmas celebrations ~ John

Oh, love the 'calorie' pun - we are not having any guests this Thanksgiving, but still plenty of Cals or Reese :)

Same here, it will be our first ever ThanksZooming, and hopefully last. But yes, the calories will be present in abundance! Thanks for the comment and enjoy your turkey day ~ John

You know there's a $500.00 fine for littering?! Very cute with a whole lot of truth - love a clean stadium! Best wishes for the contest and a very happy Thanksgiving!

Do they take cash, check, or credit card? Haha, thanks for the fun comment, a gift of yours I relish. Or onions. Or mustard and ketchup. Happy Thanksgiving but don't let those extra Cal or Reese go to your waste...

HA! now don't ANYBODY be tossing out the Reese's pieces!!(sorry, I never heard of the Cal thing before, but I just looked it up and am wondering if it has another meaning like Witherspoon had)!

No I made up Cal Flitter. I needed a Cal to make the Cal or Reese pun work. Calvin Coolidge didn't really work.
