1. Tuesdays are the day the local information paper comes out which contains fliers for the grocery stores. The first step is getting that paper up to the apartment. [ And let me just say that there is a certain thrill upon opening the mailbox every Tuesday. A weekly routine doesn't take the joy out of seeing mail in that tiny metal box.
2. Whenever I get time (or start running out of either food or creativity to make whatever food remains into something edible), I peruse the ads for the grocery store up the street, figuring out what things I need to restock the cabinets or what sounds good for meals and add 'em to the list. [Anything not food-related goes on the Walmart list, for those who are curious.]
3. Grocery shop.
Now that that's out of the way...see, what happened was...
This week they advertised Racine kringle!! Definitely made the list. I was soooo excited to grocery shop! I could practically taste the pecan-y deliciousness already. My mouth was watering at the thought.
[ For those who have no idea what kringle is, it's a Danish pastry made in an oval and best served absolutely any time whether there is rhyme or reason or not. It's one of Racine's best qualities, really.]
When I got there I hunted that bakery section down because they moved it on me! Of all the weeks to move the store around, why, oh WHY was it the week of having kringle?! And when I found it, do you know what was there?
....everything but kringle.
*siiiiiigh*
Good thing Easter's in a few weeks.
