I'm sure you all know how to build sidewalks in most stores, with the ramp that allows shopping carts and wheelchair friendly access from the sidewalk to the store parking lot.

A few years ago I went to the grocery store and saw an old man with a cart, next to the ramp up to the curb. I thought I offer to take her car so he had to push it up the ramp, saving additional energy that would lead to take the shopping cart back to the store. It has always been nice when others have done this for me, its my turn again to return the favor to another. He said something to the effect: "Sir, can I take that for you?" And he said, "Sure." So I took the car, and having made my "good deed for the day ", my feet felt a little more light to enter the store to buy a few groceries.

I did not need much, so quickly made the first aisle from the back of the store, and the next aisle, back to the front section of the store.

The entrance of the store called me attention. The man who helped me with the shopping cart was standing in the doorway, looking around! To my great shame, then I realized he did not help this man at all – he had taken his car! Oh boy …..

I was relaying this story to a friend, and she asked if I had apologized to him. Of course not! I was trying to mix with the tomatoes — I know why I again??? I had not done enough?

Well, I have all the elements I needed, and went to the box. He was there with his new shopping cart, checking out too. So needless to say, I thought just, you know, out with frozen vegetables for several minutes.

Have you noticed what an interesting section of the store vegetable section is frozen? :)
