I agreed yesterday that I would go to the store for my mom. There were only about three items on the shopping list and I knew that they would be easy to find.
This afternoon, before I left, I went and grabbed the shopping list, which had mysteriously tripled in length, and now included fresh produce. I went to the store, picked up the things I could easily find, then moved on to the fresh produce.
The first thing on the list was green pepper. I've never bought green pepper, I don't even like green pepper, I had no idea how to tell if it was good. I picked up a few to see if maybe by touching them I would immediately be granted with a God-given knowledge of fresh produce.
Nope.
I tried to call my mom. Ring ring ring ring. No answer.
Call Dad. Ring ring ring. "Hello."
So I ended up asking my dad how to tell if different types of produce were fresh. Eventually, I found some that seemed to fit the criteria he gave me and managed to get out of the store without being crushed to death by produce.
