Take it with a grain of salt

A few months ago we allowed enter the house for treatment a most peculiar woman, Ann. One of the first things she told me upon making my acquaintace was about the time she went to pick up her friend Jack at the airport as soon as she saw him she yelled HiJack and got arrested by airport security, eccentric indeed. Dont know if its true or not.
Anyway why did I call this "take it with a grain of salt"?? Oh yes, let me begin. After a short time in the house she went to see her "doctor" who "strongly" suggested she start using this special "salt" due to some "medical" problem she was having. So she went and got this salt and kept it hidden in her cubbie so that know one else would try using it. Soon enough though someone got wind of said salt and since none of them really liked her they decided to hide it in the garbage can. This created immediate conflict and accusations flew about who had hid the salt. No one could find it though until we threatened to put the house on lock down till the salt showed up...........a few minutes later someone "found" it in the Garbage.......miracle.
While all this animated banter was going on about who took the salt? and where was it? our oldest client, mildly demented sat in the corner and muttered "oh Ann just take it with a grain of salt"
