I drove all the way to Gainesville today to buy Almond milk. Not just any Almond milk. It had to be Silk Almond Milk (unsweetened). I choose Gainesville because I needed some Whey Protein too. So...I gather up my money and my coupons. Get it - coupons. I bet you have guessed it by now. LOL I stopped at the first Publix along the way and discovered that they did NOT have what I needed or wanted. Grrr....now I have to drive more into the city. Did I say Grrr....! So through traffic. Ok, not just traffic, it was Gator game day traffic. Yeah! I check out happily with my Unsweetened Silk Almond milk and head home. Secretly there is a half gallon of Publix Pumpkin Pie ice cream in the cooler too. Shhh.... I finally get home and empty my pockets and find....Yes, Dingbat me, finds the coupons for the milk in my pocket. Have I said Grrrr....yet?!
I think my "best friend", Webster, figured me out again!
