I guess it is some sort of supplement???? I suspect she gets some sort of
pleasure from sneaking it.

To be honest, not all 24, Perhaps only 18. It was early, before all the
others had arrived. The plate was almost full when she moseyed over to it,
and then they were all gone.

"Is there something we need out there?"
This time I instructed my wife to keep her out of the kitchen. She is her
niece, her sister's daughter, so she should deal with it. The girl has
already confronted me at a large party about why I don't like her.
Ironically, it was when I went into the kitchen to get more things to take
out to the party and she was eating crackers from a previously unopened
box.
