The other day, Mr. Baseball and I went to the local Ralph’s to get some groceries. We were browsing around, getting the usual—bread, milk, copious amounts of pasta—when we walked by the check-out registers and there was, lo and behold…
a tiki bar???
It looks super classy next to all those cases of Natty Ice, right?
Apparently, Ralph’s now sells patio furniture…who knew? Well, not too many folks I guess, since it was all on clearance at 40% off.
At first I was just amused that I would find something tiki in a supermarket. But then I got to thinking about the summer, and sipping mai tais by the pool and then it wasn’t long before I was enlisting family members (and their truck) to help me haul it away.
I asked the manager if they had any boxed up in the back and he said no—that was the only one and it had to go as is. Yikes! But it’s on wheels so it wasn’t too bad. Mr. Baseball tried to get the manager to throw in one of the cases of Natty with the deal, but he wasn’t having it. 🙂
Now, who wants to help christen it?
The Tiki Chick
