When George and his troops were encamped at Valley Forge, and the camp cook asked him how he liked the supper of gruel and hardtack, I bet he replied, "It was great! Better than what Martha makes!" The cook probably knew George was lying, but I'm sure he appreciated the effort.
I would rather eat your homemade treats than gruel and hardtack any day. :)
I was actually going to say that your homemade treats are quite good, and leave it at that. But after admitting my lies in my post, l thought perhaps my credibility as a truth teller was damaged. (My wife believes I overthink things. Imagine that.)
So, let me remove all doubt and state unequivocally for the record that Mr Bill's homemade treats are quite good. And, if I'm lying, may I be sentenced to a lifetime of gruel and hardtack.
I thought George Washington could not tell a lie. I guess that was a "lie".
You always liked my homemade treats, right?

And, that's the truth.
I guess I feel honored.

Anyway, thanks for reading and subscribing.
Enjoy your posts.
I threw away a stale plate of such treats just a couple days ago! No coworkers complained.
