PIZZA 

That is disgusting.  Gran wrinkled her nose at the mess.  The half-eaten pizza, all sorts of things cluttered on the work top.  She rolled up her sleeves, donned her pinny and started tackling the detritus.  Picking up the soggy box to deposit it in the bin, she was stopped in her tracks.

 ‘GRAN, STOP.’

She whirled round, as much as her arthritic knees allowed her to nearly dropping the offending item.

‘I want that for my breakfast.’ 

Her tousled headed, six foot grandson leered down at her, smiling endearingly.

Sean dropped a kiss on her cheek.

‘Thanks, Gran,’ he mumbled.

  4. "Pinny" and "detritus" in the same sentence -- love it!

  5. Second-day pizza can be okay if you know how to heat it up right. But eating it cold? His taste buds have been seriously damaged.

  6. I'd say this a real slice (pun intended) of life, Sally. I was raised in a "waste-not, want-not" atmosphere. We didn't throw anything away that was still edible.

    Man... Detritus is the word of the week (including in mine!)...
