2 Tablespoons

My mom had a stroke last year and I know that can affect a person's personality. Sometimes I have to wonder if it's the stroke talking or truly mom's personality coming thru. For example: we were in Krogers a few weeks ago buying groceries for a cookout and a birthday party. When we get to the ice cream section I grab a container of the Kroger brand and mom proceeds to tell me "that's not the right one". Well mom this is the smallest size they have.....and she tells me she wants the half gallon container of vanilla. She is looking for the rectangle containers and I tell her that they don't have those anymore because they have redesigned the package. I guess this really bothers mom because she proceeds to tell me in a rather loud voice that they are charging the same price but you get 2 TABLESPOONS LESS ICE CREAM. The guy passing close to us starts laughing. Gotta love mom and her 2 tablespoons.
