Peanuts

We're at the grocery store tonight and there's a sale on peanuts. $2/jar if you buy 10 instead of $4.79/jar. That's a big discount. So obviously, I bought 10 jars.

It's a lot of peanuts.

At the checkout, there's a guy bagging for us. He slowly bags each of the 10 jars of peanuts, then he turns to us and says "You guys must be having a party!"
We casually laughed and said "no" and headed out to the car.

Then I started thinking. What was he talking about? A party? With peanuts? Is that something people buy before a party? When's the last time you were at a party and you thought to yourself: "Man, this party is great, but what it could really use is about 15 pounds of peanuts."

Here's my shopping list for the Halloween party:
Vodka
Whiskey
Cookies
10 jars of peanuts

Anyway, I can't stop thinking what kind of parties involve that many peanuts. Maybe they just torture people with allergies.

Can you imagine sticking your hand in a giant communal bowl of peanuts at party? That's disgusting.

Anyway, long story short, I eat a lot of peanuts.
