Do newspapers still publish that Family Circus comic? The family was so white bread it was incredibly annoying. Add in some equally annoying children and I’m pretty sure that damn comic was one of the reasons I don’t want or have any kids. However, I could not help but follow that stupid dotted line around the neighborhood every time Thelma gave Billy a sawbuck to pick up some rolling papers at 7-11 and to come directly home.
We didn’t need any rolling papers today, but in case you feel like following my dotted line around the neighborhood…..
First stop – Dinkel’s Bakery. Two Sophisticakes – a nifty hybrid of cupcake and cake – one chocolate with white chocolate mousse and one chocolate with raspberry.
Second stop – Paulina Meat Market. One Polish, one Italian, two chicken sausage, three steak burgers, and a pound of dill cole slaw.
Third stop – Nhu Lan Bakery. Three fresh baked rolls for the aforementioned sausages.
Fourth stop – Harvestime Foods. Assorted produce, mostly fixins.
Fifth stop – Walgreen’s pharmacy. Better living through chemistry.
Sixth stop – Cardinal Wine & Spirits. Six-pack of Clausthaler.
Then after supporting my local economy, back home to my deck for a beer and a turkey and avocado sandwich. While listening to The The.
After a shower, it was back on the bikes… but I’ll save that for the next post.
