So at work they seem to think that the combination of chicken and strawberries go together. In the wonderful world of Lindy Lou- that isn't even a thought. Now why in the world would anyone think that Strawberries and Chicken can even mix? Not on pizza or in a Summer Chicken Wrap. Nothing. Nada. YUCK.
Anyway- My little Sweet Baby Reding #2 seems to like spicy stuff these days. I'm not one for spice either. So I've been eating anything spicy I can get my hands on. Tacos, chips, peppers, etc. You name it and I've probably had it in the last month! Besides my intake of spicy foods, I can't seem to get enough fruits. I. LOVE. FRUIT. Any and all fruit. But if you haven't noticed, the price of fruit is outrageous!! I mean really? $5 a lb. for cherries? I think NOT! So, the great couponer that I've become (not really but I do get an A for effort), I took my handy dandy Aldi's ad because they had watermelons for $2 each, .99 cents for a crate of strawberries, $1.75 lb. for cherries and $1.25 lb. for grapes. So- I had the greatest and most friendly cashier at Wal-Mart. Not. First off, P falls asleep in my arms at the deli (because we have to get potato wedges) and P wanted popcorn chicken. So as we are waiting because we have the slowest person helping us- she was super nice but extremely slow. And when you are carrying a 35lb. child that has fallen asleep- hello! She gets heavy fast! We get our chicken and potato wedges. I proceed to the checkout with P asleep and my cart full of fruit. I get up there to checkout- and low and behold P will not wake up and mind you, its 5:00! She NEEDS to WAKE up! I would like some sleep tonight- thank you. But that was unsuccessful. I dropped all the chicken and it went everywhere. So these nice people around me just stood there and watched me holding P sleeping bend down as she looks like a bobble head and scrap up the chicken. The cashier told me to go back and get more. Okay. Not a problem. Thanks lady. I went to get more and when i got to the deli- the just looked at me. Didn't try to help me at all. Just stood there and watched me. I finally gave up. I got back in line and I got out my handy dandy ad and went through my list. That nice cashier only gave me strawberries for .99 cents. Forget the rest. I was so mad when I left being that I just went the day before and got my fruit and the Aldi price! Really?! Lady you are messing with a hungry pregnant lady that is carrying a 35 lb. sleeping child! I don't have my chicken and now I don't have my fruit! She is not on my friend list and of course, she happens to work at Golden Living. G.R.E.A.T.
So June is going by fast and I think I will sit back, eat fruit with some red pepper flakes on it and just relax and sleep. Or read. Maybe bake or sew. Who knows!
Love,
L
