## Resource

One morning, Cathy found a takeout bag on her porch. It had the name “Rodolphe” on it, and contained one half-eaten order of french fries. The next morning, she found another bag. And then another. That’s when her neighbor Harley got involved: “We need to take this to the next level.” Harley Rustad wrote an article about the french fry mystery for Toronto Life.
