my poor cheese-its!

At the grocery store, I am usually a sucker for things that are "new" like new flavors, new packaging, and just new products in general. This Saturday at the store was no different. I had on the list that we needed crackers and cheese-its sounded really good. So i saw that they had a new flavor- it was actually cheese-it duozs so it was two new flavors in one-that is almost too good to be true. so i was very excited about them and of course we got them. Well, last night i was in the mood for a snack and of course when I saw my cheese-its I knew I had to have those. So I got the box down from the top of the fridge and started enjoying my snack. but then out of no where and all of a sudden, i just dropped the box and all of the cheese-its went all over the floor.

i exclaimed "oh no!!!!!!!" and nelson called back from the basement in a worried voice "is everything ok up there, what is going on???" and so then I informed him it was my box of cheese-its and that they had all fallen all over the floor and he very kindly was sympathetic for me and then I asked him "do you think I can still eat them??" normally i would have still eaten them but when there is a baby inside of you, you tend to think twice about what you are putting in your mouth. Nelson agreed with me and we decided it would be better and safer for all to just get a new box of cheese-its. so I might need to take a trip up to the store sometime in the next few days.

A few things:

1. If Nelson was as concerned as he feigned to be, he would have dropped his controller or mouse & ran upstairs to be by the side of his pregnant wife who might have just had her water break or felt a "pregnancy pain." Instead, he merely calls from the basement "babe, are you O.K.?" I thought I knew him better....

2. were all the cheez its ruined? Although the area around the accident scene looked pretty messy, could you at least have saved a few from inside the bag?

3. did you have cottage cheese & triscits as a backup?
