Sixteen Ounces!

Do you remember that time the high school newspaper interviewed our family about how we try to eat healthy?

Do you remember that story I told about the farm we belong to and the twenty organic pumpkins that arrived on our back porch one day?

Do you remember how much I love cabbage?

Do you know about my obsession with other people's back yard chickens?

So, Ace has been spending a lot of time with a fine clean cut young man we refer to as "The Sheriff" for reasons we won't reveal on the blog, but trust me if ever a pseudonym fit this one does!

NO KIDDING!

The first time we had the opportunity to have a meal with him he was a terrific sport about letting me capitalize on the obvious pseudonym.  He earned lots of bonus points on the Wanda Louise humor scale for this.

Which was a good thing....

Because then he told us the story of how he went out with friends after church and ate....

A ONE POUND HOT DOG!!

I don't even know where to go with this story....

For the love of processed meat!!

It takes a lot to make me speechless....

Usually if I buy hot dogs I buy them one pound at a time -- in the form of 8 hot dogs, which are consumed by at least four and sometimes five people. 

I'm glad I didn't witness this, and sort of regret knowing about it.

But besides the sodium nitrate addiction the Sheriff is a very nice young man.  We've shared a few more meals with him since then and he seems to enjoy normal food.

Hey Sheriff stop by for dinner any time. 

I've got a giant grill on my Amazon wish list.
