Unusual Day

Yesterday I did not feed corn to Buddy and his Buddies. He ate the Walnuts I put out, but then snubbed me on peanuts. SOOO, today I put out 2 BIG ears of Corn, and he forgave me, and took a peanut. I usually go to the grocery and Walmart by myself, but today, Tom drove me there, so I didn't have to walk very far. Got some stuff at Walmart..then on to Grocery Outlet to get our crushed Ice bags. While in there I got some more Walnuts. I was going to get the ice and passed by the frozen bread section. I have been looking for Garlic ROLLS for months. As I was saying..."okay 1 more try" There they were. I about did the happy dance. They are better than the Garlic bread at Walmart. Dinner rolls with garlic butter. They melt in your mouth. THEN as I was about to put groceries on the check out, I found my Claeys Cinnamon Old Fashioned Candy! I told the lady I have had to order these on line because no one is selling them. Now that they have them I will be back for more. I was about to finish my last bag, so finding them there saved me from having to order on Amazon. It was so nice to not have to drive and park and load and unload groceries by myself. We will have to do that again soon. Have had Crock Pot Pot Roast with taters and carrots for 2 nights. Will probably have Chicken tomorrow.

I like going to the store with my husband for the same reason. Tomorrow we are having a pork roast,

He doesn't go in the store with me...We would be there all day. I know where everything is and once I get a cart, I can get the stuff I NEED quickly. He would be strolling around looking..would probably find him in the sporting goods section. LOL

We mostly shop together but often walk to the store and just get what we can carry. If we need a lot of items, we take the car or shop when we're out in the car.

Sounds like you had a really sweet and satisfying day all around. Buddy seems to clearly know how to forgive when corn and peanuts are involved. It’s funny how those little routines with animals feel like real relationships. Having Tom drive you must have made the whole shopping trip feel much easier and more relaxed. Finding garlic rolls after months of looking is absolutely happy-dance worthy. We all have gone through the feeling at some point of time. Those little surprise wins at the store can make your whole day. And discovering your Claeys cinnamon candy locally must have felt like striking gold. It’s so nice when everyday tasks don’t feel like such a solo effort. Good food, small victories, and shared errands really do add up to a good day. Enjoy the day!
