half gallon of half and half

so, i'm in the grocery store tonight getting some onions and beer and trying to soak up the easter-eve vibe. Not much easter-eve vibe in the outskirts of La Jolla...until I examine the contents of the guy in front of me in the express check-out line:

3 pounds of strawberries

two gallons of milk

a big ole pre-cooked ham

five pounds of potatoes

and...

drum roll

a half gallon of half and half.

what does one do with a half gallon of half and half?

coffee service for 50 perhaps.

but my money is on a crazy scalloped potato casserole recipe that calls for a butt-load of half and half.

mmmm

easter

before my half gallon of half and half express checkout line encounter, i tried to buy a small bag of Cadbury mini-eggs, just for old-time sake, but they only had 18 ounce bags...and I don't need that much extra candy in my life...

but that does raise the possibility that maybe the dude only needed a small amount of half and half, but all they had was the half gallon....so he went for it...if that's the case, i hope he does something fun with the leftovers...like pouring it in the bathtub and doing a kinky photo shoot.
