Last July when Grandma J went to the first annual Blog Fest in Mathews, VA, her luggage was opened and inspected by TSA. Since they don't tell you what red flagged their suspicions about your luggage, Grandma J figured it was the 20+ metal cookie cutters shaped like the state of Texas. Just a wild guess.
Fast forward to last night when Grandma J arrived back in Texas. Upon opening her luggage to empty it and start a load of laundry she discovered this........

That's right....her luggage was targeted once again. Grandma J also got patted down by a female TSA agent, even though there were several male agents available.
While no contraband or weapons of mass distruction were found on Grandma J's person, she has a sneaking suspicion that this is what they were looking for in her luggage.......
Her Aba Zaba candy bars and several small jars of Knott's Boysenberry Preserves. And yes they opened one of the boxes of Aba Zaba candy bars because the cellophane wrapping was off. And yes again, Grandma J counted the candy bars to make sure they didn't confiscate any.
Did Grandma J ever tell you about the time she went through security in Orlando with three cigarette lighters in her purse? No one noticed!
If there's anyone else who wants some preserves, email me your address.
