grocery list

You get a phone call from your mother. Since her car has been in the shop, she asks you to go to the grocery store and pick up a few odds and ends for her. Bread, milk, cereal, and chicken breasts.

Sitting on the front steps, you overhear the psychiatrist talking with the crime scene investigator.

"Hi hun, it's me. Could you stop at the store and pick up some chicken and milk? Oh, and I need some bread and cereal too."

"No problem mom. I'll be right over..."
