Senior Day

Because I must make bring-along dishes to July 4 parties, I drove to the Decherd Kroger, packed with silver-haired folks.

When I ran into a friend and asked what explained this phenomenon, she said, "It's Senior Day! Each first Wednesday of the month."

"Sign me up!" I cheered.

I got an extra 10% off, making the lovely berries (already discounted to $5 for any two kinds) even sweeter when I got home and ate some drowned in heavy cream.

Sometimes old people earn lovely and unexpected perks. I celebrate them.
