Margaret's Revenge

As you know from past posts, Margaret was my 4 foot 9 Italian Mother in Law. She always called my husband, Dickie. One time when, "Dickie" still lived at home, he had sassed her and she became irate and decided to get even! While he was in the kitchen cutting himself a piece of cake, she planned her revenge. He would have to walk past the sofa. It was a blind spot for him. She decided to stand up on the sofa and wait for him to walk past her. He came out of the kitchen, one hand holding the cake plate and one hand with a forkful of cake in his mouth. Whoosh! Margaret trounced on his back. She stayed on his back for a few seconds. Yelling at him for being a bad kid. Dick, in the meantime wondered what the heck was going on. He was stunned! It was a sight to behold! My mind pictures a lot of yelling and spinning around. I don't know what happened to the piece of cake Dick had in his hand, probably became a big mess on the floor. Finally she let go of him and dropped down off his back. She said that was what he gets for being a smart ass and sass his mother. This story has been told over and over again with Dick's side of the family. I would have loved to have seen it and the expression on all the faces of those people who were there during the wrestling match. Dick's facial expression would be worth it just to see alone. Wow, what a woman! I don't think "Dickie" ever sassed his Mother again!
