As a sidenote about food...

A friend of mine, whose son is Orren's best friend, just texted me about something that happened at the grocery store that sells all the good organic foods. They were in the checkout, and her son, Orren's friend, was having a lovely conversation with an older couple, who definitely really liked him (If you knew him, you'd understand. The kid is adorable. He's just like Orren, but blonde.) They ended up buying him some cookies to share with his brother. (His brother wasn't there, but he told them that he has a brother.)

See, stuff like that always happens at that store. It's like, every single time I go there, we see cool people, and they're always super nice. I've never gone to that store without getting complimented by at least one person (just random people, not employees) on how nice Erin and Orren are, or how cute Chai is, and people always come up to talk to them. That NEVER happens anywhere else here. Everywhere else, people really don't even look at you, and if you dare to venture into the depths known as Transmountain Walmart, at least one person will either run into you with their cart, or say something rude at some point.

Why are the people at Sprouts (formerly called Sun Harvest) so much nicer than the people everywhere else? Could it be that eating well has a positive effect on the mind?
