Cream
Last night I went out for sushi and then headed to the Publix to pick up some dessert while I watched a little of the television. I chose a coconut creme pie. They had whole pies and half pies.
‘Why is the whole pie $3.99 and a half-pie only a dollar less?’ I asked the bakery lady. ‘That doesn’t make any sense.’
‘Well,’ she said, ‘you’re paying for convenience.’
‘I’m paying,’ I said, ‘for half of a goddamn pie. You’re making America obese. You ought to be ashamed of yourself.’
This is not as harsh as I was on the checkout girl when they were selling 2-4-1 large containers of Miricle Whip.
I took the whole pie home.
It was delicious.
Here is another blogger’s fridge. Any guesses?

Why do I mock? I picked this habit up from you, the charming Midwestern habit of adding articles in front of nouns that need no determination.
Midwesterners: care to confirm or deny?
Everytime I say, "Time go to the Target!" I think of you.

Yeah, bitch out the bakery counter lady. She lives for that .Also,the reason the half-pie is only one dollar less? You took home a whole pie.
