Princess Pegleg on prowl

LISA DENTON: Barry, I got pretty excited the other day when I saw a sign advertising a Pirates and Princesses Party. Turns out it was just Kids Night at Chick-fil-A, and I was a little overdressed. Next time I’ll know better.

One thing I do know for sure is that strawberries are front and center this week. Dayton is celebrating my favorite fruit at the Tennessee Strawberry Festival through Saturday. And I can get a second helping Sunday at Chattanooga Market’s EPB Strawberry Festival.

BARRY COURTER: I bet you looked a little out of place crashing that kid’s party in your princess outfit.

LISA: Aaargh. It was a little bit of both actually, a tiara and a pegleg. Just what I could find in the car last minute. But I digress.

BARRY: You’re going to have to give me a minute to get past the princess with a wooden leg image.
