Gas=Petrol and Breakfast=Bagels(?)

Woke up this morning feeling very hungry and thirsty. Blame it on the half-bottle of wine last night.

Hubby had woken up bit early around 830am and started the Dishwasher--Bad, bad choice. All the hot-water was used up by the stupid machine.
Note to self: NEVER switch on the dishwasher before you Shower.

Thanks to speed stick, i'm all set in 5mins and packed the lunch and out of the door in 30mins.

Still hungry.

And I have to pump gas to both self and car. Car comes first since it just might stop moving altogether if I don't feed it!

So I drove to the Shell gas station and did ALL these steps:
1. Wait for 3mins to take a Left turn to gas station (Oh, look there is a Dunkin Donuts next to it!)
2. Put car in Park and apply hand brakes
3. Shut off the engine.
4. Remove seat belt
5. Push the button to open the gas tank door.
6. Open the bag, search for wallet, search for credit card.
7. Take the credit card and get out the car.
8. Swipe credit card twice (to get the gas machine to accept it!)
9. Turn around and remove the gas tank cap!
10. Remove the nozzle
11. Select "Regular" gas
12. Wait for 5mins for the car to be fed.
13. Put back the nozzle and gas tank cap on.
14. Go back to car, forgot the receipt.
15. Go back again, pick up the receipt and finally settle in the car


But then i see I can just walk to the Dunkin Donuts instead of driving all around and search for a parking spot!

So finally I walk, thinking i'll just get out with a regular coffee.

The donuts and bagels smell soooo good.

I see the promotion of their new "Bagel Twist" :-)

Couldn't resist and got a Cinnamon Toast Bagel Twist and a Medium Cappuccino (but with Skimmed Milk).
I usually go for Medium cups in Dunkin Donuts because the quality of the paper cup is much better than the Small!

Wonder if they do it intentionally??
