#cherries
So I order my groceries and get them delivered to my door. This week they had cherries on special so I thought I’d bake a pie. Today my delivery got here and I was unpacking the bag. No cherries. Instead the gave me baby tomatoes. So I call the store and…
Me: Hi, this is Korp, I just got my delivery and you gave me tomatoes instead of cherries.
Store: Oh I’m so sorry. I’ll take care of that for you. So you didn’t want the tomatoes at all?
Me: No. I ordered cherries.
Store: Ok, so take that off and add cherry tomatoes.
Me: Cherries.
Store: Right! Sorry! Ok, I’m setting up the exchange. Baby tomatoes for cherry tomatoes.
Me: … Cherries.
Store: Right! I’m so sorry, I don’t know why I keep thinking tomatoes.
Anyway, it took another five minutes to get it right, and then I still got another call from them a little later to confirm and again with the cherry tomatoes. I just want some gd cherries so I can make pie! Tomato pie just isn’t the same.
I got my cherries in the end though.
