"Hey Lady"

SO I go to the white hen and they have everything else you could imagine-cornstarch, baking soda, coconut-everything but confectioner's sugar. Oh-and here comes one of my pet peeves with ALL supermarkets. They had 47 boxes of regular sugar and a couple of 5 lb bags for good measure. Why is it that all supermarkets carry huge amounts of one thing-but not a variety of things??? Our roche bros grocery store has 4 types of ground black pepper with at least 4 x 20 rows of each one. so that is about 320 cans of black pepper. I am not exaggerating. But yet, can you find chipotle pepper-Of course not! And who is eating all that black pepper??!!

So I am leaving and the guy at the counter says "hey Lady-you lookin for somethin?" Why I don't know-but I said "yes, confectioner's sugar". Blank stare. I leave.

But- all is not lost-after a futile stop at CVS and Tedesci's I remembered the middle eastern market. BINGO! open AND confectioner's sugar. Buy a box, come home. Walk in the door and say "what was I thinking??!! I need a box just for ONE of the cookies-I have four more to go for icing's today!" SO back in the car-race there before they closed in under four minutes. Race in the door and grab three more boxes. Home Safely.
