PUTTING IT OFF ONE MORE DAY . . .

Why is it that I put off going to the grocery store until I have one end piece of bread and a teaspoon of outdated milk ? It doesn't make sense because I like to cook and like to eat even better so one would think my attraction to food would make me look forward to the whole grocery experience but no - it doesn't !

Out of town guests coming tomorrow for the weekend forced me to go for the two-buggy trip yesterday and I tried to make it a fun experience so I wouldn't go completely berserk ! I began to look at grocery buying as an adventure and tried to think of one liners for my stand-up comedy routine that I secretly always wanted to do and I wondered - - -

Why do they put croutons in air-tight containers ? Aren't they just stale bread anyway ?
When cheese gets its picture taken, does it say "people"?
Why is lemon juice flavored with artificial flavoring when dishwashing liquid has real lemon?
Spelling Evian backwards should tell you why you are spending $2.00 for a bottle of water.
Then they had the "new and improved" cat food - who knows that ?

I had almost gotten myself into a good mood thinking of funny things when the person in front of me had to have a price check on bok choy (of course no one knew what it was much less how much it cost) and after standing in that line for 20 minutes I resolved not to go back grocery shopping until mid-September !
