Back then, Tuesdays were my normal day to visit Mom and the switch to Wednesday was a welcome change for her. Five years later, we&#8217;ve made a permanent switch to Wednesday. Mom would choose Village Inn and free pie every Wednesday (if that was an option), and then send the pie home for the Man of Steel. Because her appetite for pie has decreased, though her appetite for a great bargain has not.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\">Wednesdays with Dorothy<\/h2>\n<p>Tuesdays are usually for visiting my mom, Dorothy. Most weeks we go out for lunch, run errands, keep appointments, pay her bills, and balance her checkbook. But my crazy week of travel meant our day out was today, Wednesday.<\/p>\n<p>Which was fine by Mom. She\u2019s been hankering for schedule change ever since Village Inn started their Wednesday-free-pie-with-any-purchase promotion. So today we made a beeline for Village Inn \u2013 before putting gas in her car or buying some birthday cards \u2013 and made quick work of lunch. Then we ordered our free pie. Cherry for Mom. Strawberry-rhubarb for me. It was surprisingly good pie, though it couldn\u2019t hold a candle to homemade.<\/p>\n<p>The fact that it was free had Mom, thrifty survivor of the Great Depression, grinning from ear to ear. Free pie made her happy enough to crack a few jokes on the way home. Engaged enough to read yard signs and comment on the political leanings of home owners along the way. Secure enough in who she is to use her cane in the Target parking lot. Silly enough to choose the goofiest card she could find for her son-in-law\u2019s birthday. And to think, all it took to make her happy was a schedule change and free pie.<\/p>\n<p>Wednesday with Dorothy \u2013 priceless.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This Friday&#8217;s post comes from October of 2010.
