Most of you bad ass quitters know that I live with an active user....my husband.
Sometimes.....he walks right into it......and I do giggle....a bit....well, maybe a lot....hehehe

My dear old man asked if it would be okay if I cooked a grand breakfast for him and the kiddo since it was the weekend....the only time I seem to ever be home. He offered to go to the store and get the items and all.

I made a list. Short. Sweet. Non-male confusing. The very last item was my Starbuck's order....because he is a non-coffee drinker and would be lost.

Soon enough, as I was prepping some other items in the kitchen, Mr. G walks into the house, and arrives in the doorway of the kitchen holding two bags full of items from the market in one hand, and my Grande Starbuck's in the other. He places the two bags on the counter and then steps forward to hand me the lovely white cup of morning goodness. As he does, he says "Oh my God Janette. Six bucks? Seriously? I can't believe you would pay six bucks for this. Really? Is this every day? That's a lot of money and I never really realized it. I mean, Starbuck's has to be making a shit load of money just off of you and laughing all the way to the bank. I mean WOW. That is just unbelievable. I really didn't know it cost so damn much for stupid coffee. I was just shocked. I mean, that is seriously a lot of money and it's damn near a crime"

I grabbed my coffee. Took a sip. Licked my lips and said "Damn that is good. So.....I see that Copenhagen is selling for $6.25 a can. Hmmm."

G drops Mic........Returns to prepping a grand breakfast.......and all was right in the world.
