Virtue and vice

It all started out so well tbis morning. I heard an ad on the morning local news for the Farmers' Market and decided I should go.  For one reason and another I hadn't gone all summer but today seemed like a good day for it.  I made my mental list: tomatoes, green beans, maybe some sausage. I made it to the market, bought the green beans, tomatoes and even a couple of potatoes.  So good, so healthy. Even the little jar of jam was all natural.  The mistake was deciding to stop at the little bakery on Main Street on the way home.  Just for a loaf of bread you understand.  I needed it to go with the jam. But the strangest thing happened while I was in the bakery.  I bought the bread (their really good apple bread) but other things kept hopping into my hands.  Two packages of cookies and a cup of chicken salad later, I headed home.  A chocolate cookie or a tomato?  I'll leave it to you to guess which I ate first.
