Cleanup on the Cereal Aisle

I almost forgot this "accomplishment" — we were at Whole Foods a couple of weeks ago, looking for baby food and our local store has super-narrow aisles, barely wide enough for 2 of their grocery carts.  So in order to let another person pass, I scooted Sam and our cart close to the shelves — big mistake!  I had my back turned for 1 nanosecond to put some baby food jars in our cart, and I heard the familiar sound of breaking glass. Mr. Curiosity had struck again 🙂

I turned around to see a jar broken and food splattered on the floor!  D’oh!  Of course I couldn’t laugh – -but inside I was howling.  The kind clerk behind me said,"Don’t worry about it.  I’ll get someone over here to clean it up."  A minute later, there was a voice over the intercom saying,"I need a clean up on the cereal aisle…."

That’s my boy :-).
