It was a few years ago when I started hearing a radio commercial for some new smoothie type drink. I heard that commercial numerous times, and I thought they called the product "lightweight keefer". A year or so later when we were picking up Virga and Cirrus from their previous owner, she told us that they liked kefir (didn't know the correct spelling at the time), a yogurt-like drink. So, we went to the store to find some, and there it was on the shelf -"
Lifeway Kefir". I told M that I head been hearing this commercial for this stuff and what I thought it had been called. It was much like the stories you hear about people who totally misunderstand song lyrics, such as Creedence Clearwater's "Bad Moon Rising". The correct lyric is "there's a bad moon on the rise" (just in case you forgot).
It turned out that all four of our gliders like kefir, and M has resumed giving them some a couple of times a week in the afternoon. Cirrus
really likes her kefir, and is usually the first nose to appear when it's time. M dips her finger in it and lets them lick it off, but for Cirrus that's not always fast enough, and there are three others competing with her for licks! So, she often helps herself while M takes care of the other three.
