H.E.BUDDY
I visited my local HEB store today. For those of you from normal states who don't know what an HEB stands for, it is the Here-Everything's-Better store, and no, I'm not kidding about what that stands for. I just googled it.
Always being up for a new grocery store, I wandered into this HEB. It literally has everything in this store. From a sit-down cafe, to a carve your own meat section, to a hispanic woman making fresh tortillas in the isle! to clothing, electronics, toys, whatever your heart may desire and folks...Here Everything Is Better! Who would have thought.
So as I wandered the isles examining all of the store items (such as our Fiesta trips trigirl82). In the end I wound up buying one of these herbal teas that is supposed to enhance some portion of your life to make you a better person. I quickly glanced at the back of the box to see what was in it, decided to give it a try, and away we went.
Upon arriving home I pop my tea in the microwave (nothing like tea when it's 110 degrees out) and proceed to read the back of the box. In order for this tea to have a life changing effect, you have to drink...3 to 5 cups A DAY! WHAT?? The box only contains 16 packets of tea. This $5.99 that I paid will only amount to 3 1/5 days of life enhancement? Shoot. What a waste.
Oh and the best part is that while drinking my five cups of tea every day in the 110 degree weather the side effect of it all is.......................................................................diarrhea.
Nice.
(I hope you enjoyed all of the photos of these foolios who took their picture with H.E.Buddy and posted them on Flickr where I stole them from. I can't believe that's a mascot. And just for good measure I have to say it....HEEEEEEyyyyy Buddy. Yep, you saw that one coming.)

Labels: The toy section was called H.E.Buddy. Add in a few more E's and a Y and it would be hilarious.

I can't believe you didn't search for that mascot to have your picture taken with it! Clearly I needed to be with you on this excursion to spurn you into unnecessary action.
We need a photo with that mascot! I'm putting it down on the Must Do List! And of course there's a list... in my head. So don't worry, I have a bad memory, I'll likely forget.
Oh, and I've been to HEB in the Woodlands!.. there you have it.
Oh! I forgot to comment on your diarrhea... Good luck with that. Thanks for sharing.
I'm glad we're friends. Awww.. ;-)
I actually thought maybe you stood on the sidelines and took pictures of strangers getting their pic with the he-buddy. Put your tea over ice, isnt that how they all drink it anyway?
