Couldn't believe it...

This is how backward Indiana can be. Amalia picked Abby up from school today, and armed with a list, they went to Kroger's together to shop for Thanksgiving. And Amalia had several bottles of wine. They wouldn't let her buy it because Abby was with her! Amalia is TWENTY-FIVE years old! They wouldn't even let Amalia come back by herself to buy the wine.

When I was exclaiming in disbelief on the phone at this story, several of my co-workers said to me that similar things had happened to them or to people they know. That is ridiculous.

Wonder if they stop people from buying tobacco products if a kid is with them, just in case they might hand it to the kid outside the store? Tobacco kills more people than alcohol.

Really Puritan.
