Note To Self: A Steer Is Not A Pet

I, Greg Rafferty, must not be of sound mind anymore. Why else would I bid on—and win!—little Jennifer Jacks''s prize-winning bull, um, steer?

It could have something to do with her doesn''t-look-oldenough-to-be-a-preteen''s-mom mother, the woman behind our successful Ms. Carole''s cookies.

I was expecting The Brady Bunch''s Alice, not a blond, blue-eyed goddess in denim. And I know Carole is keeping something big from me.

I wonder why such a beautiful woman is so publicity shy? She won''t become the spokeswoman for my family''s struggling business, but I think some kisses might persuade her to tell me her secrets and let this longtime bachelor become the daddy and husband the lovely Jacks ladies need!
