Exceptional Short non-fiction flash From the Mouth of Babes by bhogg      True Story Flash Contest Winner

Mom's a nut on expiration dates. On a recent visit, she pulled milk out of the refrigerator. One quick look and she said, "You really need to throw this out. It's three days past it's 'use by date'. Trying to lighten the moment, I said, "Don't worry. I won't serve this to you. I'm saving it for the dog." "Doesn't matter. You should toss it." My granddaughter came to my rescue. Looking at mom, she said, "Granny, it don't really matter." Kneeling down, Mom asked, "Why is that sweetheart?" The totally logical explanation, "Cuz the dog can't read!"
