so i drove 45 minutes away to go to the publix in hendersonville which was TOTALLY worth the trip but it put us in the checkout lane smack in the middle of ella's nap time. the only thing that would make her happy was a bag of lettuce. i had to hold her over the scanner to pay for it because she wouldn't let go. we were coming home on the freeway and just as i hit 60mph she managed to pull the bag open and lettuce went flying everywhere. she was grabbing pieces and stuffing them in her mouth as fast as she could, and i was driving one-handedly and pulling pieces out of her mouth as fast as i could, which was hard because i was laughing hysterically. i couldn't pull over because I-65 is under construction and they don't have a shoulder, just those stupid concrete barricades. i got this picture just seconds before the bag exploded.
