Just Realized I Bought Too Much Food

I don't know why I still do this, especially as my parents are coming home.  I feel the need to stop spending money ... and I do this by buying too many groceries for me to eat before they come home.

What I did this afternoon is a prime example of this.  The first thing is I went to Dream Creamery -- or, as I like to call it, Dreamery -- to eat a hamburger ... even though I have so much food I have already bought that is sitting in the fridge.  I just wanted to eat a hamburger at Dreamery (by the way, review: This is the second time I've eaten it, and it's good mainly because it's not messy, and I also really like the seasoning, but the patty is really thin).  I then wanted to eat chili at a local grocer because I have so much pop that still needs to be drank, and while I was there, I wanted to buy a lime because, well, I have a lot of liquor that still needs to be drank.  But the grocer's limes were gross.  I mean, they were sickly.  And I was willing to buy a lime for $1.29, but not for limes that bad.

I remember that there is a discount grocer within walking distance.  I'll talk about this discount grocer some other time, but I know their limes were cheap, and I got one from there about last week and it was good.  It couldn't be any worse than what I saw at this grocer, so I walked over there to buy limes ... and they were better, but they were small.  I guess the limes being made right now aren't good or something?  But hey, it's a discount grocer, so they are three for a buck.  I bought three hoping that that would give me enough to make at least one drink.

So right now I have deli meats, deli cheese, several cans and one bottle of pop, a bottle of juice, a bottle of Arizona Arnold Palmer, a bottle of tonic water I haven't even opened yet, three limes and a tub of ice cream I haven't opened yet.  I bought the ice cream because I have a jar of cherries I haven't finished.  Oh, and while at the first grocer's a Girl Scout troop was selling cookies, and I needed to buy the kind that they're discontinuing after this season.  And oh -- before that I went to the panaderia across the street to buy a cookie and a ... malva?

You see, I had this grand plan of finishing all the food I had, but in order to eat them all I needed to buy food to go along with it, and now I just have more food.Man, I am not bright.  And I'm not going to eat any of that food in the refrigerator because I am going to the MNUFC Match tonight.  And I am eating out with a friend for lunch in St. Paul tomorrow.  Oy.
