A Sticky Situation
While on a trip from St. John's to Corner Brook, our daughter-in-law's parents stopped at our house in Grand Falls-Windsor for a cup of tea and a break from the long drive. Knowing that her mother loved toutons we made sure that we had them all ready along with a bowl of pea soup. We placed the toutons on the table along with a mason jar half full of molasses. As she was eating the toutons dipped in the molasses there was a funny expression on her face as if her mouth was sticking together. My brother-in-law dropped in at the same time and noticed that it was not molasses but brew malt which he had placed in the jar and had given me several months previously. Needless to say it was rather embarassing after I explained the situation. Still it was a good laugh! Submitted By: Ed Power
