Worth It.

The Baltimore orioles ate all my grape jelly.  So I needed more. I thought I'd stop at the grocery store to buy some cheap, generic grape jelly.  As a child the jelly most available was grape jelly and frankly, I can't stand it.  But I buy it for the orioles.  Orioles like grape jelly and they ate it all gone.  But who wants to walk into Cub and do all that walking on arthritic legs to buy food for the birds?  I stopped at my local gas station/superette and bought some grape jelly.  Yes, I paid more but the sight of those orange birds in my very own yard was well worth the cost.
