Day 1.
Mo’s Eating Tips for any Special Gathering:
If something comes with gravy, use it. That’s the whole point of gravy.
Gravy does not stand alone. Pour it on. Make a volcano out of your
mashed potatoes. Fill it with gravy. Eat the volcano. Repeat.
(Remember, these tips are for fun – although gravy IS good!)

skim milk or whole milk. If it’s skim, pass. Why bother? It’s like
buying a sports car with automatic transmission. (Remember, these tips
are fun – although mashed potatoes with real milk and real butter are
yummy!)

Story from 2003: A man walked into a Topeka, Kansas, Kwik Stop and asked
for all the money in the cash drawer. Apparently, the take was too small,

himself for three hours until police showed up and grabbed him.

Day 4.
Mo’s Eating Tips for
any Special Gathering: Under no circumstances should you exercise between
Christmas and New Year’s. You can do that in January when there’s nothing
else to do. This is the time for long naps, which you’ll need after
circling the buffet table carrying a huge plate of food and a vat of
eggnog. (Remember, folks, these tips are fun…although some of them make
good sense to Mo!)
