After a long day of furniture shopping, grocery shopping, yardwork and grilling in the backyard, Bich decided to get dessert. The choice: everyone-goes-to Rita's or local-favorite Colonia Dairy Maid? Bich picks Dairy Maid.
Brooke (thinking of the recent Saturday drive to nowhere past said establishment, which looks awesomely old and classic): Think it's cash-only?
Rich: Who the hell does cash-only anymore? I doubt it.
B (checks Internet, which yields no answer; not convinced): Okaaaaaay ...
20 minutes later, after waiting 10 minutes in line.
R: It's cash-only! Do you have any cash?
B: Of course not!
R and B (blaming each other, choice swearing in car; philosophical debate about "attitude," "you said 'who the hell does cash-only anymore' so it's your fault," etc. etc.)
Bich decides to take equal blame in this disaster; heads to Rita's.
Three seconds after exiting car.
B (signs of food poisoning suddenly make themselves violently clear): Honey ... we need to go ... NOW!
30 minutes later. Walking out of Quick Chek with pint of Haagen-Dazs lemon sorbet in hand.
R: Want to see if Walgreens has anything better?
B: No. No. No.
