Her eyes looked me over as she picked up the purse that I had dropped on the floor. She shared a smile of false care;
“Our product line is high end and nothing less than a three-hundred-dollar accessory is available.” She suggested I try an outlet store down the road.
Now staring at the teal designer handbag slumped on my kitchen counter, I wondered whether eating rice for the month was worth my response.

Bouquet
Petals of roses in the form of a missile rushed me and bounced off my chest. Sighs of disappointment from other single women including my friend Meredith who leapt into the air trying to catch this ensemble. Back at the bridesmaid table I rolled my eyes as Meredith’s fiancé, Lou captured the garter.

How to be a Good Citizen
The following guidance has been prepared by the United States government for all citizens in the wake of an uptick in domestic terrorism in the Midwest. The President and his Cabinet have heard of widespread safety concerns caused by these incidents, and they would like to reassure the American people that ICE and the military are prioritizing your safety as Americans above all else.

Love this!!! 💖💖💕
So relatable 😅 Loved this, awesome job, Cindy! 🤗❤️
I can’t believe she bought it!! Awesome story :)
I'd say eating rice for a month is well worth the response to that rude saleslady. Unless of course the rice constipates you!!!
Don’t mess with a girl and her purse.
Lol, or they could go on a juice cleanse. Or would that be more costly, lol! This was amazing!
Good one, Cindy!
Hmm I thing we have all been there
Am I the only one thinking, "big mistake, huge!"
Love it! Ramen is also good. One package & one can of vegetables is pretty satisfying & tasty.
Yum! Rice. Good read ! 🥰
Lol, sometimes its worth the forced diet. And how dare anyone assume I can’t afford it! Great read, Cindy!
This is me (the customer, I mean). And what kind of rice? ;)
