Bailey's Bargain

Well now.

This is sad.

Just plain sad.

 

All those dang Irish

early-birds

got to the

Bailey's-on-sale

before I even

knew

there was a price

worth dancin' for.

 

NOT to be deterred

I drove all over town

to three different

grocery stores

and to Walgreens

asking them to price

match.

 

Which they would not.

Whaaaaaaaat?????

Doesn't EVERYONE

price match?

 

Apparently not.

 

Finally found my sale bottles

after likely

eating up the entire

amount saved

in gas.

 

Whatever.

 

I can justify it.

NOT because I like

a little taste of

Irish Crèam

now and then.

 

Ohh no.

My bottles have an important mission

every morning.

 

I use them to hold my pita pockets

after they come out of the toaster

steaming hot

so they'll

cool and crisp

into a

sweet little pocket.

 

 

Into which

I neatly tuck

my morning

egg salad.

Sometimes

stuffed up

with spinach leaves

too.

 

Mmmmmm.

Mmmmmm.

 

The second bottle?

Well.

I do like a little taste y'know.

Just a sippy bit of a taste.

Every now and then.

Not necessarily

in the morning.
