This Guy Flirting With My Mom

I saw this jar cake at the airport recently. It was about $7, I didn't buy it but I'd never seen one before.  How's that for a treat to go?

Jar Cake


I took my mom for a routine blood test a couple of days ago.  She had been fasting, so we went to McDonald's for a quick meal afterward.  This older guy sitting next to her was trying to chat her up while I was at the cashier.  I come back and he complains 'She's not talking to me'.  I asked him if he was retired.  He says 'For 10 years now.  I'm waiting on the Casino bus, it comes in 20 minutes'.  I told him mom used to go to the Casino.  He says to her ' You should come with me, I'll take you'. Then he shows me his cane, his sight is impaired but he said he can read large letters.  He lives in the neighbourhood.    He took a liking to mom, being of the same age group I guess.  He was  tall with a slight European accent.  Mom said she doesn't talk to strangers.  She has a bit of memory loss as she approaches 75 years old and is sometimes not her usual friendly self, what can I say! My siblings had a good laugh when I told them this story.
