I don't go to the grocery store because I can't control myself, but last night I decided to help my wife by stopping into Dominick's to pick up dinner. I'm not much of a cook either (I need to work on that), so I went straight for the "already made" chicken rotisserie dinner. I picked up a chicken that didn't look burned and I did well, because it tasted great! I then thought, "I'll be a real good husband..."
The wife is always asking for bagels in the morning, so, I picked up some bagels. I know she's also a fan of muffins, so, I picked up a couple of packages of muffins. Finally, I saw cantaloupe on sale, and I grabbed one of those as well. When I got home, I felt good about my shopping spree. I didn't go crazy like I usually do, and I picked up some things that I thought the wife would like, but oh was I wrong! First, she didn't want the packaged bagels--she meant Einstein bagels! Second, she told me that if I'm going to buy the muffins, I better make sure they're reduced fat!!! Third, I apparently forgot to squeeze the cantaloupe and therefore, didn't realize that it was bruised and too soft! Argh!! Well, let me tell you, this man is done shopping! As far as I'm concerned, in my house, grocery shopping is a job only for a woman from now on!!
