happiness

February 27, 2010

I just finished working out, and I needed to buy groceries since I had run out of food. Although the day was slightly cool, the sky was clear and the sun was warm, so I decided to take the 10-15 minute walk to Whole Foods and enjoy the weather instead of going to the local supermarket right next to me.

Mo’s Dark Chocolate Bacon Bar

Sparkmans Cream Valley Chocolate Milk

1.5 dozen cage-free eggs

10 marinated drumsticks (all of which I plan to eat tonight)

turkey sausages

some kind of grass-fed yogurt banana mango drink (hadn’t planned to buy this but it intrigued me)

a jar of almond butter and a jar of cashew butter (hadn’t planned to buy this either)

I was very happy.  I immediately got to work on the chocolate milk while walking back, and a lady in the parking lot asked me what I was drinking. Chocolate milk. Is it delicious? Very I said with a big smile (especially since it was whole milk – not that low-fat nonsense I thought).

But my happiness was soon to be tarnished. The handle of the paper bag broke and alas, the bag dropped onto the concrete sidewalk. The yogurt drink and 2 jars of butter cracked open and made a delightful mess. I did get to try some of the yogurt drink by cleaning it off the packaging of the bacon chocolate bar with my mouth.

I was very sad. I carried the ripped paper bag and the mess that was inside for another 2 blocks before I found a trash can to dump it in.
