Overheard on Overheard: I think I know this book

1PM Dude, Seriously, Switch to Historical Novels
Project manager, discussing book: It was so tragic! It's not just that they were clones and had their organs harvested, but they never got to really love each other!

I think I've read this book. I think it's Never Let Me Go, by Kazuo Ishiguro. It's an excellent book. But I guess there may be other tragic love stories of clones who have their organs harvested.

Baked Naturals What Crisps

I am eating these crazy good new crackers, they are called saltines. Ha, I’m just kidding. Pepperidge Farm has these new “Baked Naturals Wheat Crisps” that are very tasty. They are kind of like wheat thins but a bit lighter. They have kind of a wheatables texture, but with a much better flavor. They have a light sprinkling of salt and spices on top. They are addictive.

Speaking of Pepperidge Farm, I always thought it was Petridge Farm, for some reason, even though it clearly says Pepperidge on the box. I mean, I thought this up until several years ago. It’s like how I used to think a piece of luggage was called a “soupcase.” This isn’t when I was a cute little toddler either. I was, like, twelve, or something ridiculous when I finally got it. I mean, I never traveled with soup, but I never traveled with suits either, you know?
