Frozen food madness

For dinner last night, I decided I would buy something at the store instead of going to a fast food place. I got ready after my run and drove to the grocery store.

I knew exactly what I wanted. I walked back to the frozen food isle and stood in front of the Italian bag meals. I opened the door and pulled a bag out. I was ready to leave the isle and pay, but I stopped in my tracks. The front of the bag said "meal for two". On this night, I just wanted a meal for one. I thought could I really eat this entire bag of food? I turned the bag over and looked at the fat grams. It read 35 grams of fat. I instantly opened the glass door and put the bag meal back on the shelve.

I walked to the next isle where the meals for one are located. I looked around and spotted a box of ravioli. I opened the door and pulled it out. Upon holding the box, I thought that I should find a meal that had meat in it since I had to go without on Fridays for another two weeks. I walked a couple of doors down and spotted fettuccine alfredo. I know it has no meat in it, but it looked good. I really wanted it and grabbed a box. I was satisfied with my choices of ravioli and fettuccine alfredo and started to leave the isle. At the end of the isle, I looked down and thought I should really have a meal with meat. I turned around and went back. After looking at all of the choices, I settled on lasagna.

Before leaving the frozen food isles all together, I went down an isle that I skipped. I was looking at frozen pizzas. Most of the choices were the large pizzas. In one of the cases were small individual pepperoni pizzas. I grabbed one, but I still wasn't sure that I wanted it. Now carrying four frozen meals, I stepped in front of the mozzarella sticks. When I grocery shop with my husband I always point them out because I want them. But we always continue to walk by. Now that I was buying something for myself, I stopped and looked at all the variety's. After looking at 3 different kinds I settled on one. And with that, I put the lasagna, ravioli and fettuccine alfredo back into the freezer.

This trip to the frozen food isle took about a half hour. So many decisions when you are making dinner for yourself.
