We had BLTs for supper tonight and Owen tried to sneak one past his Pa by violating Rule #38. After finishing a desired number of sandwiches he took a lone piece of bacon. Taking food that is designed to be partnered is strictly forbidden and Owen knew it. He sat looking forlornly at the solitary bacon on his plate, knowing that, as full as he was, he couldn't violate Rule #25 either--"you touch it, you eat it."
Suddenly, an idea dawned on him, "Hey Dad, can I eat the bacon with a pickle?" His ingenuity won the day, and Dad was left laughing. However, that still didn't solve the problem of what to do with a leftover LT.
