Sugar Pie:

While killing time in an East Georgia shopping mall, the lovely Avon and I encountered a very little boy not more than three years old storming his way up an escalator. His young mommy was trying her best to catch up with him as worked his way between and through the other passengers. When he reached the top, I said to him, “ Whoa! What’s the hurry there, big fella?” giving the mommy a chance to catch up. With eyes big as silver dollars and just as bright he proudly said, “I’m going to McDonalds and get a Happy Meal!” By this time the mommy had reached the top step huffing and puffing; she smiled her thanks, took his hand, and with a Southern Drawl that generously dripped with honey said, “Come on now Shu-ugaah Paah.” We barely held it together until they were out of earshot and then we lost it. I started affecting that accent and calling Avon Shu-ugaah Paah as a little joke, and she has been Sugar Pie to me now for nearly 30 years.

One of those days when everything goes right..... maybe a little too right.
