What's Mine is Yours?



In aisle 10 of the supermarket, a debate ensues...

Jenn: I want to get granola.

Weight Watchers calculator in hand, Hal is busy adding up the points.

Hal: But granola has a lot of fat and a lot of carbs.

Jenn: But I like it on yogurt.

Hal: Then get it. All I’m saying is it’s really not that healthy for you.

Thanks to the newest member of the Weight Watchers Gestapo, I put it back on the shelf and stare at it longingly. I return to the cart empty-handed.

Hal: You’re not getting it?

Jenn: No, not if you’re going to make it out to be so unhealthy.

Hal: It’s fiiine. Get it, it’ll make you happy.

Jenn: True. And I don’t add that much to the yogurt.

Granola is placed in the cart and we forge ahead in search of yogurt. I find a big tub of it, happy to see it’s strawberry flavored.

Hal: That looks good!

Jenn: It does. And it will go perfectly with my granola.

Hal: Yeah, and I can have it for dessert.

Jenn: You’ll have what for dessert?

Hal: The granola and yogurt.

Jenn: You always end up eating my stuff.

Hal: You’re only realizing that now?

Jenn: I know, it’s because I have such good taste.

Hal: Yeah, you’re with me, aren't you.

Oh brother.
