The Best Beverage Aisle in the world

4/21/08 in the Food Emporium (82nd & 3rd, NYC)

This was a most magnificent Beverage Aisle -
each bottle was exactly in place....
I was quite impressed (and I don't even have OCD).
I commend the employee who is responsible for this.....

A leetle leezard...at the drive thru of the Steak & Shake... I stayed at a Ho Jo's....
Here is the FIRE ESCAPE PLAN on the inside of the door -
I belive the plan is to jump into the POOL....

My suitcase didn't get on the same flight as me, however, Delta did deliver it to my hotel by 10pm that night - but I stopped at PUBLIX for a few things and luckily could get some "Items for the Last Minute"..... the shaving cream is "hers" - in case some guy got confused and thought he might shave his face with 'Raspberry Mist" shaving cream?????

The back of the package listed these items - did I just shave my legs with toothpaste and mouthwash???!!!! Items for the last minute of what????!!!! Maybe it should be:
"packaging for the items not appearing in this package" at the last minute???
