Sweet 'n Simple (She's sweet and he's. . .)

They were advertised as "Simple Treats" in a Feb. 5 post on Stan's sister's blog:

I stopped at the grocery store on the way home and picked up three items:

• mini-pretzels
• Rolos (chewy caramels in milk chocolate)
• half-pecans

Along with how-to-do-it directions, Becky posted a seductive photo of the chewy treats. They looked fabulous, her readers applauded, and so her smart-ass brother deftly left a sly comment on her blog:

"When can I expect my package?
Your brother, Stan"

Dan. He liked 'em. Liked the movie too.

Today, by Priority Mail, delivered to our chilled mailbox, Becky's Simple Treats arrived, along with a sweet note, signed "hee hee." A total surprise. We're laughing and enjoying the munch-ables tonight, as we watch "Elsa and Fred," an award-winning romantic comedy from Spain, with sub-titles. We were joined by our itinerant pal, the legendary charmer Danny Martin, who dropped by our house tonight with nothing better to do than mooch a burger with fried onions from Kathleen, drink some Scotch, and watch our Netflix movie.
Says Kathleen, Dan and Stan: "Yummy, yummy, Becky. We truly love the simple!"

Thanks, Sister, what a sweet surprise.
Bro Stan

P.S. "Elsa and Fred" was great too. Very unusual, and a heart-warming tale for seniors.
