My life is now complete

Today I was rekindled with a long lost love of mine.  I have never been much of a soda drinker but while I was going to school in Idaho I feel in love with Dr. Pepper.  Since I don't drink caffeine I had been missing out on the delicious taste of this carbonated drink until I moved to the small town of Rexburg where they sell just about every soda in a non-caffeinated form.  From my first sip of this wonderful drink I knew instantly that it would be my favorite.  I have many fond memories of late night prank calls, eating popcorn, and drinking Caffeine Free Diet Dr. Pepper.  Although I was ecstatic to get out of the freezing tundra of Rexburg when it came time to transfer to Hawaii it I was sad to leave this drink behind. Knowing that it was most likely not going to be sold anywhere outside of Utah and Idaho I tried to stock up on as much as I could.  Now keep in mind, I am not much of a soda drinker in the first place.  

So why am I blogging about this you might ask.... Well its because today as I was searching for peanut butter in the isles of the local albertsons my eyes caught a glimpse of a familiar red and gold color box.  As a took a second look I was more than thrilled to see the beautiful words: Dr. Pepper, Diet, and Caffeine Free!  I bought the whole case (and am tempted to go back and buy more just in case this is a temporary ordeal).  I am finally reconnected with my long lost friend.  Here's to you Mr. Pepper.  

This was one of my tender mercies of the week.
