the elusive dumpster kraut

Yesterday while running between clients I stopped at the good food store, [Leon calls it Gufus] to get some soup for lunch. Pulling out of the parking lot I noticed some boxes of produce sitting out by the dumpster. I stopped and sifted through them for a few moments, picked out a few heads of lettuce, two carrots, a handful of leeks, and some bits of cabbage.

I headed back to the office feeling quite proud of myself for scavenging some yummy produce from the town dump. After arriving, I spent a few minutes sitting in front of the computer, then it struck me. I was a complete idiot, where is my audacity??? There was a WHOLE box of cabbage, green cabbages, white cabbages, red cabbages, and napa cabbage, and all I did was grab a handful of leaves? Whats WRONG with me???

Immediately after work, I jumped back in the car and sped off to the Gufus dumpster, hoping to see a big rosy box of cabbage just waiting for me. I pull up and stop the car…someone had already grabbed ALL THREE boxes of produce. For ultimate shame. Hearty ho…dumpsterkraut one day, one day…
