Second disclaimer: I don't exist on a diet of only sugar. The photos you are about to see chronicle an atypical day.
I had a cupcake left over from my recent trip to Whole Foods. All I care about, obviously, is the frosting. I call it butter. While I was eating my cupcake, my mom was on the phone trying to make an appointment with the doctor. I hollered at her repeatedly "get off the phone; I am licking my butter." I don't often tolerate it very well when my mom diverts her attention from me.
As we got ready to leave, I wrapped myself in the flag that my dad put out for Memorial Day. He fails to observe flag etiquette, much to the annoyance of our neighbor who precisely follows the rules about what time to display and then take down the flag. Had we known that I was going to pose for this photo, I would have worn something other than a striped shirt. Or, better yet, we would have swapped out this flag for our Canadian one. The neighbors would have loved that!
After the doctor, we stopped by Starbucks. I had a cocoa. yum. My mom has bronchitis so it seemed like a perfect excuse for her to drink a caramel frappuccino. (After three+ years of abstaining from caffeine, what isn't the perfect excuse for a frappuccino?)
And then, we could not believe our eyes! A freak cold front rolled in and the temperature dropped to 68 degrees. It even rained. Sadly, by the end of the day, it was back up into the 90s but we enjoyed this cold weather while we could.
Despite having consumed an entire pound of sugar, I cuddled up with my new ambulance and fell asleep.
And then my dad brought home dinner from Whole Foods.
