butter fail

[numberoneblind]

So if you're going to be staying somewhere for a week and you have a kitchen, it is totally reasonable to just steal some spare little things of butter when you are at a restaurant, instead of buying a whole big thing of butter for a week when really you're only going to need a little for your toast. If you have a daughter with a purse in which to smuggle out said stolen butter, even better.

However, this plan really works best if the daughter in question is smart enough to remove the butter from her purse and give it to you once back at the hotel. Otherwise, it will ride around in her purse for a month, and one day she'll pull out her wallet and wonder why it's slightly greasy, and pull everything out of there and find, mixed in with the general purse detritus, several squashed, oozing little tubs of butter that have managed to get all over pretty much everything. She will be writing buttery checks for weeks, getting weird hints of rancid butter flavor when she puts on her lipstick.

In entirely unrelated news, I had to buy a new purse today.

Bleeaaaagh.


edit:

(It does not look that unreasonably large until you consider that that is ON my head, not in front of it. The zipper that's visible is an extraneous front pocket.)
