Viva Pate!
Here is a funny diet story involving me and diets.
So at home, I looked on the package for the Nutrition Stats. These are required on all food, but I couldn't find anything that told me how much sugar, protein, carbs, etc. Was something wrong?
When I searched even more, I found in small elegant print, "Canine Pate."

Yesterday I ran in the grocery store to buy milk while my husband waited in the very hot car.
On the sales shelf was a small container marked Chicken and Herb Pate. It sounded delicious and was reduced to 50 cents! I grabbed one small can and then went back to the counter and grabbed two, all while my husband was sweating from heat. What a delicious treat for when I got home.

I had planned to splurge on my diet. But what I had bought for myself was Pate for a Dog!

Anne, perfect! Thank YOU!
I laughed so loud (I love dogs)!
You have a wonderful skill... you should not hide it behind all you want to do. It's things like this that make you human, and make me want to look for more!
We all need to remember that we are trying to touch people's hearts first, then hope they will want to buy more of what we've written!
Good Job! Karen
