“It’s lovely to meet you, Joe.  I’m Dana Carapelli.  The kids call me Mrs. C.”  She pushed hair off her face and held out a hand to shake.  “I’ll get Carter for you. Have you eaten? We have food if you’re hungry.”

She was excited at the idea of an adult test subject.  Maybe the lonely orange chili would have a fan before the night was over.

“I’m starving.  Normally I wouldn’t want to impose but we’re still getting settled in at our place and I don’t want another burger.”  He followed her into the kitchen.  “It smells incredible in here.”

As always, thank you for reading,

Gina
