It was so neat, being back in the supercenter :) we decided to walk over to the food aisles, it's usually crowded in this area of the store, but today, surprisingly, wasn't that crowded :) we got some cheese, and also went over to the deli :) we didn't go up many aisles, as we didn't need much, but we did look at the bakery, and the produce, we got some nice bags of peanuts for the squirrels and bluejays, 2 bags of peanuts for $1. :) SWEET!!! :) we got some nice chicken sandwiches, at the deli, they got this cool stand, where they have ready made sandwiches, and popcorn chicken, popcorn shrimp :) nice!!!! :) my mom, dad, and i got some goodies to enjoy on the way home :) After we were all set, we then choose a checkout, the cashier there, was a nice guy, he was talking to us, he asked us if we were traveling :) my mom said, "just back to norwich soon" :) it was nice :) the guy asked about the peanuts, and if they were just for animals, or for people, we said, we think people could eat the peanuts too, and he said, "i have seen the ice creams they have now, for dogs", hehe! :) it was cool talking a bit :) it made the checkout experience go a little cooler, and more easily :)
After we checked out, my mom, dad, and i walked the main checkout line area, back to the exit of the store, i did really well! :) it always makes me so proud, when i do well in the stores, especially the supercenter! :) it truly is, where it all began for me, the roots of my therapy, will always be there, that supercenter, where it all really did begin for me, on February 10th, 2007, when i went out to that store, for the first time :) What a journey it has been, and it continues! :) We put our stuff into our car, and drove over to a dunkin donuts, in Waterford, Connecticut :) i used my gift card, and got a nice large blueberry iced coffee :) SWEET!!! :) we then took the turnpike home, a sweet cruise, and reflections back upon a beautiful day, of SUPER adventures! :)
