After lunch today I took a walk over to the 'Shopeteria' - a brilliantly named little convenience store which happens to carry Ben & Jerrys. I snatched up a pint, a bottle of iced tea and plopped them both down at the register. But just then one of the most amazing things happened; something that I have been secretly wishing for many years. So secretly, in fact, that even I hadn't quite realized that I'd wanted it.
I caught a glimpse of a cardboard box of new Coconut M&Ms.
"Coconut M&Ms?!" I said this aloud. I yelled it. I yelled it at the cashier; not even to him, but at him.
I was so taken by this new discovery that I'm not even sure what the poor chap mumbled in response to my outburst. The value of that little package of candy far exceeds the 89 cents that you part with at the register. They're even printed with little palm trees next to the 'M' on each one. I have never known a love quite like this.
