Agaricus Bisporus
I go to the same grocery store for most of my stuff because it's the best deal in town. I also like the fact that I can count on items being in their usual spot each and every visit; with one glaring exception.
Yesterday it took me forever to find my beloved mushrooms, and this isn't the first time. I've decided they move them when they know I'm coming just to mess with me. I swear they're on a different aisle and a different shelf every time. Conspiracy? Or imagination?
It's a conspiracy. Definitely a conspiracy. Same with the pickles in my store. One day they're sitting pretty near the mayo and mustard, then suddenly they're off next to the bread. Whaaaa? Conspiracy, I tell you.
ReplyDelete@Christy & Hooka Looka: LMAO! Ah, but who're the conspirators? The store employees or...the food...? (cue creepy-cheesy suspense music)
ReplyDelete@Steven64: Good point. Hmmm... I must ponder this as the creepy-cheesy suspense music plays. I strongly suspect the food.
ReplyDeleteMy vote is for conspiracy as well. At my store, it's the olives. Hold on. I always find them near the pickles. Hooka, they may be in it together. Just a thought.
ReplyDeleteMmm, hmm. I'm sensing something here. Small vegetable type food items in containers - pickles, olives, mushrooms. And the creepy-cheesy suspense music continues to play, as the conspiracy deepens.
ReplyDeleteHey Steven64! How do you get your avatar to appear? Mine won't and I'm a follower too.
ReplyDeleteThe real question is why. Are they making their way closer to the door, as to facilitate an escape? Or is it more sinister?
ReplyDelete@Sullydasarock: 1) I'm not sure why my avatar appears but yours doesn't. That's happened with other people on other blogs too. Sometimes avatar, sometimes nada. And 2) Oh, I think the conspiracy is far more sinister. A plan for escape would be too easy, too...predictable. No, I think The Foods have something far more diabolical in store (no pun intended).
ReplyDelete@Hooka Looka: (creepy-cheesy music fades to eerie silence...)
There is nothing more unnerving than the sound of eerie silence. You can almost hear the pickles, mushrooms and olives moving inch by slow inch.
ReplyDeleteAh yes. You're right, Steven. That would be too easy. With so many in cahoots, the plan, whatever it may be, has to be something on a grand scale. But what...
ReplyDeleteHooka, you're creeping me out! HA!
ReplyDeleteSmall vegetable types in containers are inherently creepy dude.
ReplyDelete@Hooka and Sully: Stick to the roads...stay off the moors...and beware the full moon... oooo-OO-WEE-oooo...
ReplyDeleteThey probably want you to wander around and see other things to buy while you're shopping. That always happened to me at that gas station/organic grocery up on the South Hill. Rocket, I think was the name. I'm not sure if they moved their mushrooms around, but I always ended up buying a lot more than I meant to in there. :P
ReplyDelete@Steven, Hooka Looka, and Sullydasarock: LMAO! I'm now afraid of mushrooms, pickles, and olives. Does this mean I should be suspicious of the ones I have at home? I feel many sleepless nights approaching.
ReplyDelete@Lindsay: That's it exactly! In the past I have made impulse purchases while on my journey to find the mushrooms, not this time. I didn't let myself get conned. I stayed focused and determined. It's a good plan on their part when you think about it.
Be suspicious of all contained vegetable types. @Christy: Got canned peas, corn, beans, spinach? Who knows what they're plotting while we sleep. Ever wake up and find that things in the kitchen aren't quite the they were when you went to bed? Something to think about.
ReplyDelete@Steven64: Whoops!
@Steven64: Hooka Looka looks down at feet to see I'm already on the moors.
ReplyDelete@Hooka Looka: LMAO!!!
ReplyDeleteLMAO! This was a really funny exchange.
