I have always enjoyed grocery stores. Its hard to go back. I just want to wander around with time to kill while other family members shop. Stare at the TV lights in the plants area, snag a sample of Brachs candy, pretend I need to use the bathroom and wander around the warehouse area. Now I am too mission-focused when I go to the store.

Who knew, the odd things we would find nostalgic later in life. Instead of museums, we should just build mock supermarkets and charge people $5 to come in and look around.

I would pay to visit a place like that.

I read that some places only offered kids free cookies on their birthdays. I got one every week and it was the highlight of our visit! Our magazine rack faced the produce section which made it chilly.
