The Food Whore Has Been Banned From These Premesis

I love the grocery store.

I do.

I mean, it's a place which sells food!

Now, I understand that grocery shopping isn't in the Top Ten List of Fun Ways To Spend Your Day, but it's not horrible, either.

So I wish all the crabby, snobby, nosy people would stay the Hell away from me when I shop.

I got a last minute panic call for a picnic luncheon so I had to buy approximately 10 cases of Coke products this morning. Which, of course, brought all sorts of stares in my direction.

So I am at the check-out line and two mocha-holding, Louis Voutton purse - sporting snobs were standing behind me in their workout leotards buying their bottled waters and croissant. The were eyeing me as I treated myself by ripping into my new bag of Kookaburra Liquorice (Licorice from Austrailia is THE BEST) and one of them said, "I really will never understand mothers who feed their children soda pop like it's water. The other friend then said, "Oh, I agree. I mean, how much Coke should one family buy in a day?"

I shit you not.

I was in pretty good spirits after gnoshing in my chewey licorice so I was going to ignore it but instead I turned, smiled and said, "Yeah. I hate jobless housewives who have nothing better to do than spy in people carts and pass judgement on things they know nothing about. You spilled mocha on your shirt, by the way."

One day there will be a sign on my store that says, "The Food Whore Has Been Banned From These Premesis."
