Yup, that's me! Sitting like a big boy in the grocery cart! I helped my dad get groceries on Sunday. While we were cruising the aisles, I noticed that I was positioned for optimal shopping FROM the cart. All I had to do was put out my hand and grab! Consequently, I decided to pick out a few of my own choice items to add into the mix of weekly grocery purchases. Unfortunately, dad, in his infuriatingly understated English way, put them back without explanation. Why wouldn't a baby enjoy some hot sauce on his rice cereal? What's so wrong with escargot? Escarwho? Dog food is so specific....the picture on the package looks good enough to eat. It may say Purina Dog Chow but all I can see are delicious kibbles drizzled in sauce. Who says a baby is immune to the lure of attractive packaging?
Here I am with my dad after grocery shopping. Note how pleased he looks with the grocery selection while I am clearly less than impressed.....no hot sauce, no escargot and, tragically, no delicious dog chow.
