Efficiency of Healthy

The grocery store is way too big. Like Disneyland for food. For maximum efficiency of a time well spent, eating healthy saves you at LEAST twenty minutes of your life. I skipped half the grocery store today. junk food aisle, soda aisle, cake frosting aisle, condiment aisle, frozen food aisle, nope nope NOPE! it was straight to the veggie aisle, then to the breads, then to the dairy, boom boom BOOM! done done DONE! so quick.

I go to a relatively "rough" neighborhood grocery store and somehow asking the gruff vegetable shelver the location of the "alfa alfa sprouts" made me feel shi-shi posh-posh. It's such a pansy sounding vegetable."Over there", he points and walks toward a shelf. He looks at the shelf, smiles and says "Hey!! you got the last one! phew! there was only one left!" climbs up on the railing reaches for the container, checks behind the mushrooms "yup! the last one! you're lucky." hands me the alfa alfa sprouts and walks back to shelving yellow onions, still smiling. I felt like the luckiest guy ever, hey, I DID get the last alfalfa sprout!

It's always good to keep frozen veggies in your freezer. A lot of times they are packaged at the height of their season, and they're PRECUT wooo hoOOOOOO
