Smoke and Mirrors

So I was wrestling a bear the other day and the wife called my office. That's Mrs Pig to some of you but I like to call her my Oinkstress. She said when I get home from work I was in for a dinner treat. My natural response was "well, I am hitting the Quick Trip at 84th and F for a 2 for $2.00 roller dog special so your treat better be beat that." she hung up.

When I got home I was greeted with a crock pot of potatoes and summer sausage. The sausage was juicy, warm, and tender.* Not sure what went into it but the dinner conversaiton started off with what I assume begins all family meals...."I thought it would be nice to make this for the hotdog thing. Sausage counts as two right?" I need not go into the details of what happened later, but she knew standard hotdog conversions and actually helped with this adventure. Didn't know how to compliment her so I simply gazed into her eyes and said, "honey, you are my beef queen." she left the room. Does 30 days of dog bliss bring couples closer together kind of like a couples retreat? more on that later.

Earlier that day I crushed 2 at the Quick Trip above and either Copperfield or Chris Angel was there because I was treated to smoke and mirrors. How Pig? Glad you asked..... Walked in and 6 large areas of roller dogs all full. Spicy dogs, hot dogs, corn dogs, and well that was about it. below average condiments and packets of relish and onions. Have you had gas station packet onions? It's chunky snot. When you actually look at this spread you realize that it's only 3 kinds of dogs and below average condiments. When I walked out with two in hand I merely said to the clerk... "nice try Q T.... nice try." he knew what i meant.

2 at Q T (despite selection and condiments. best price by far)
1 at Kwik Shop 96th and Q (the best word to describe it?....moist)
Crock sausages.
