Dear Fritos

Dear Fritos, I love you. Your pure corn, no wheat goodness is just what I wanted.
I love your baby bag sizes because I feel like I barely gain any calories from you.

We should hang out more often.
Love,

Dear costco return line,

Dear costco return line,
I hate you. Its long and slow.
The lady upfront of me has an ear phone piece and is talking loudly with great gestures. Ugh. And sad that I look like that often!
So often I buy things and say, if it doesn't work out of fit, I'll just return it.

ILM holding 3 things. One I've attempted to return 3 times, but the line was out the door!

You suck and waste my little health.

Dear Coupons,

I love you and I hate you all at the same time!

I love that you save me money. Sometimes seriously significant amounts of money:


I hate that you take so much time and effort and planning to achieve great savings. I wish that every shopping trip would save me as much money as pictured above but I am a lazy coupon-er. I have great ambition and little drive. Coupons, please clip and organize yourselves next time.

Love,
Morgan

Dear Blair Catalog Clothes

Dear Blair,

I hate you. I still remember the booklet catalog from my childhood. You came in the mail, an insert with the grocery adds. The models were so old looking! And the clothes, yuck! They covered up too much, where was the youth?

My mom ordered from them all the time. I can still see the red "Capri" pants, elastic banded, wide legged. She had several different colors.

They still make them.

And as I look for a replacement for my favorite Cotton dress, I turned to Blair. It still exists. And now I'm old enough that the models look my age. But they are so skinny! And now my body is one that Blair would flatter. They don't make small clothes, so for that, I love you Blair.

I love the swimsuit with the long skirt and high neck line. I can't wait to wear you!

I love the cotton dresses. I love how long they are, so I can lay down in church. I love how the arm and necklines are so flattering. No need for undershirts here!!!

So Blair, I'm sorry. Please forgive me for past years of hate. I'm so sorry.
I love you.

Love,
Rachel

PS, since I appologized, can you rush my shipment? I'm tired of wearing a sports bra and mens shorts in the Physical Therapy pool

Dear 21st birthdays,

Dear 21 st birthdays,
I like you. You mark a passage of time. You mark the last government regulation......


until social security.


Or the age to run for president. For this, 21st birthday, I love you.

The point is, you make people feel free and extra happy on this birthday. And you make their friends feel the need to make sure they take advantage of their new drinking age.

For this, I hate you. Around the world new 21 year olds are cursing their friends and the universe for their birthday. And that sucks.

Love, rachel

Dear White cheddar with smoked salmon cheese,

Dear White cheddar with smoked salmon cheese,

I love you.

It was love at first bite last summer. You were on the tasting table at Top Foods. I was hungry. I ate, intending to walk on. The taste was shoe stopping.

Oh, the smooth creamy cheddar, with bits of smoked salmon in every bite. Oh, what a great northwest treasure!

But the cost, oh the cost!

I walked around the store, thinking of you as I shopped.

Then I remembered that I needed a treat for my night of camping with my Sister. I bought the small package, with crackers and apples. I looked forward to the oohs, and aahs and people savored this northwest vibe treat!

Then my son cut of the top of his finger in the door, right before the camping trip.
We went anyway, without the finger top and without the cheese.

When we came back, the relationship with my sister stunk, but the fish infused cheese did not.

Yesterday, as I failed at talking myself into 17$ a pound Gouda, I saw the discounted cheese basket. BUY NOW, BEFORE THEY EXPIRE! The cheap Zmolek in me had no thought, just reflexively flew to the basket.

Oh, heavens! There on the top, was you! My white cheddar with smoked salmon cheese. With a beautiful sticker, proclaiming you cheap enough to be mine!

For the second time today, you are my lover. Right now I pause typing, to take a square of cheese and a square of apple. You are a cheese that should be served in squares. Sliced on a sandwich would be akin to cheese murder.

Oh, savory cheese,
I love you. Will you be my second husband? No, third. Edward is my second.
Love,
Rachel

Dear Rachel,

I love that I can talk to you about my evening events,
too much information as it is,

and you smile and nod,
ask a few questions,
share stories,
comment about it later,
and shake your head.

good talk ha :)

Love,
Julie

I. Love. You.
You represent change. Entering and exiting into major life changes.
Or great milestones.
Your are fun with colored paper. Surprises and anticipation.
Both blowing out the candles on one side, or singing happy birthday on the other is fun.

Rachel
