Pleasantly Surprised

I never know what's going to happen when Mother goes to the grocery store. She's an impulse buyer who likes to try out new foods and that usually translates to bringing home really random things. Like coconuts. And artichokes. And chocolate covered pretzels.

The other day, I asked her to buy some yogurt, so yesterday, she returned home with four different flavors and brands of yogurt- because she wasn't sure what I wanted.

But she also gave me a delightful surprise: we had lobsters for dinner! Just the two of us. Lobsters and ribs and really sweet corn. It was so special and unexpected. We all need a little spontaneous lobster dinner in our lives.
