The little things.
I took in the recyclables this morning. At my new house, I’ve been mainly throwing them in the recycle bin but at my significant other’s house I recycle. And, take it into the recycle center.
It’s been a minute since I have done so, but it was fun to get back into a routine of sorts.
So as I was leaving the recycle center, I realized I was one quarter away from the $3.00 I needed in order to do the $3.00 car wash, without breaking a $10.00 or a $50.00 bill.
So I decided I’d go to the Dollar Store and get a couple of things to break my $10.00.
Once I was ready to return to the Car Wash, I chose the only open spot to wash my car.
I walked up to the machine to turn my dollar bills into quarters to use the car wash.
As I got ready to put the quarters in the machine, I noticed that the previous user left 6 quarters, a pay it forward of sorts.
Or perhaps forgotten quarters?
Whatever the reason, I smiled and was overjoyed to know that I didn’t need to worry about having enough quarters. I paid it forward and left a few quarters as well.
If the devil wear Prada, then God must wear Gucci was a random thought that I had. As a serial entrepeurner, I love combining food with fashion and anything in mode. Here are a few recipes that you can sink your teeth into.
