Snacking Karma

Last week I was in dire need of a salty/sweet snack while at work, so I went down to the basement where the snack machines are, and got a pack of trail mix. Sunflower seeds, peanuts, raisins, and M&Ms -- a masterful blend of salty and sweet, and it has dried fruit in it, so I can pretend it's healthy!

Well, when it dropped down and I stuck my hand in the little door to retrieve it, I discovered a pack of Oreos that some foolish person had left! How does one leave Oreos? Anywhere? And if you discovered you'd left your Oreos somewhere, wouldn't you go back and get them?

So, being a bit of an Oreo fanatic, I gave the poor little abandoned cookies a home in my desk, and promptly forgot about them.

Today, in the midst of a day when NOTHING is going right (beginning with feeling yucky this morning, progressing to a pre-bus fight with Grace, and culminating in a work day where nothing works), I opened my snack drawer and found.....OREOS!

What a nice little surprise! And so much better than the banana I'd planned on having for an afternoon snack!
