Both women vowed to train for the sub seven minute mile but said it would be slow going at first. Then they offered the reporter some cheeze whiz.

Everyone but you.

LOL

I’ll go through 3 or 4 boxes of lemon cookies in a day.

I buy em 20-30 each for lemon and mint.

Sometimes throw in 4 or 5 shortbread.
