Journal #7- Symbolic Writing

Jane and Chuck are strolling down the aisles at the super market with their shopping cart. Jane began to collect her usual in each section; cup of noodles, cheerios, wonder bread, American cheese, and vanilla bean ice cream. Chuck pulled the shopping cart to a stop.
"Why must you always get the same groceries?" Chuck asked.
"I like consistencies. I need these to make the food you eat every day." Jane replied.
"But you make the same food all the time." Chuck insisted,
"You've never complained about it before." Jane bickered.
"Well I'm in the mood for something different." Chuck stated.
"Like what?" Jane snapped.
"How about jalapeños? And instead of your plain vanilla how about Neopolitan ice cream?" Chuck insisted.
"Where is all of this coming from?" Jane asked.
"Maybe I'm sick of cheerios and want some fruit loops." Chuck responded.
"I want to eat what we always eat." Jane said.
"Maybe I should just get my own shopping cart," he said as he strode to the opposite side of the super market where there were lines of new shopping carts.
