Whenever I make muffins of any kind,

I immediately think of my Grandma and

the time we made my Grandpa blueberry muffins.

My Grandpa and I were sitting at the

Dinning room table eating our breakfast.

My Grandpa ate one blueberry muffin,

then another and another.

I said, "Wow Grandpa, you must really like

blueberry muffins, you ate three!"

My Grandpa said, "I do! But...

I thought they were a little chewy this time"

"Don't tell your Grandma though....I don't

want to hurt her feelings"

I said, "Ok Grandpa, I won't tell her"

When my Grandma was don clearing the table

She came into the T.V. room...

a.k.a Den...a.k.a Great room...and said

"Thanks Lynn for helping me clean up."

I looked at her like she had asked me a question

I didn't know the answer too...and said...

"Excuse Me?"

She said again,"Thanks for helping me"

I said, "With what?"

She said, "Throwing away the empty paper liners.."

"From the blueberry muffins.."

I said, "What empty paper liners?"

Sounding annoyed she said,

"From the blueberry muffins!"

I said, " Grandma, I didn't throw away any empty paper liners"

"You didn't?"

I said, "No"

We looked at each other..

Then we both looked at my Grandpa,

Sitting in his Lazyboy.

I looked back at my Grandma and said,

"Grandpa did say your blueberry muffins were chewy this time Grandma"

We both started to laugh and Grandma said,

"Grandpa, your not suppose to eat the paper!"
