I have those days when I realize I've lived here too long. The other day, a co worker came in wearing a flower for, as he put it, "Remembrance Day." Of course, he added, that's what they call it in Canada. In the US it's called Veteran's Day.
I offered my trademark blank stare.
Was it today? someone asked. No, he replied. November eleventh.
"Oh!" My eyes lit with recognition. "Peppero Day!"
Because you can't compete with edible pencils.
