a buck seventy-seven



i bought the most incredible raspberries tonight at the god-forsaken 'super' market.

they were PERFECT. not a blemish. super plump. super shapely. so RED! all tucked sweetly in little plastic containers, lovingly stacked in a 'pay-attention-to me' pile that glimmered under the fluorescent lighting in there: there, in the non-organic produce section of said god-forsaken store.

the kicker? they were $1.77 per container. in total. each. one dollar seventy-seven! and ALL the way FOR ME from watsonville, california: zip code 995077.

i was so blown away by my good fortune, stumbling upon all of this dirt cheap perfection here in eastern canada in the summertime, that i bought three of those little tiny plastic packages (yes, i know what you're thinking...and i should have bought more).

another great day for me. another great day for the environment. i'm going to have some for breakfast.
