Big Salad

Today is grocery shopping day. Every 2 weeks, after H and I get paid, we take a cab to the grocery store and get 2 weeks worth of groceries. It's pretty fun, because almost no other couples are there shopping together. Just moms with kids...they can be pretty damn hilarious from a people watching stance. You'd think I'd be bored with people watching, what with working at the mall and all...but no. It's so damn fascinating.

Tonight we're having a big antipasto salad, with chunks of salami and pepperoni, and fresh mozzerella. I hope they have those tomatoes on the vine. Those are crazy good.

Maybe you dont' know this, but the grocery store can be damn funny. Have you ever really looked at the products? You know those slices of cheese that are individually wrapped? They make those with peanut butter and jelly...for like, if your mom is a crack-head I guess. And that bread with the crusts already cut off...Just how convenient does shit have to be anyway?
Makes me laugh...

Just found out I'm getting CD's from a fellow LJer. Cool beans!
Alright enough rambling, time to be productive.

Shopping Mommies and crustless bread

Yeah, I think some of the stuff they sell IS silly. I'm lazy so I like some stuff ready-prepared (like stuff I can take to work/school and pop in the microwave. I like easy stuff, like pastas and salads and fruit salads and soups... stuff like that. That's about it in the cooking category. I'm not good at cooking meat b/c I don't eat it... once in awhile I can stomach chicken but usually not. (Nothing against meat-eaters). Pity the next guy who marries me and expects me to cook. He can wear the apron, I'm going to work. Hehe.

As for Shopping Mommies? I probably do look funny. One step towards over-priced asparagus and "Anthony, sit down sweetie" Looks at asparagus "Anthony! Sit DOWN!" Decides on asparagus, hurries with cart through produce aisle, randomly throwing decent looking stuff in the cart. At the pasta area "ANTHONY RAY! DOWN! You're gonna crack you're head open!" Makes way into dairy, debating trying out vanilla flavored soy milk, turns around with product in hand. Drops product on floor, "Dammit Anthony!" Procedes to chase after squeeling two year old. I get comments ranging from "Oh! He's just so CUTE!" to "I'd of whooped him a long time ago." to "I'd NEVER talk to MY child like that." Most people just pray to whatever they believe in that they don't have children. He's a good kid, really. Very obedient. He just hates being in a grocery cart. Oh well.

Well, that's kind of the latest version of what I'm talking about. They do sell loaves of bread with the crusts removed. And those slicey things that are PB and J but still require bread is the wierdest thing to me.

But you know...to each their own!

Total strangers make comments to you about how you talk to your child? Unless you are cursing at him (highly doubtful), that is pretty damn presumptuous!

I hope you give those fools a peice of your mind!
