Let Them Eat Ice Cream!

I am giving up fast food.  I am participating in a weight loss challenge starting tomorrow and running through April 30, which means no fast food for me until May (if I have any hope of getting healthier and losing weight).  Of course, I had to say good-bye to fast food today, which made it the perfect day to do this particular act of kindness.

While buying my Burger King burger (yum) and fries (meh), I paid for the order behind me.  I had no idea what they ordered, but there were three people in the car, so I was slightly worried about the potential cost.  Still, this was something that has been on my list for a while, and I knew I wouldn't have a chance to do it for a while if I missed this opportunity.  I didn't even ask for the total as I told him to use the same card. 

It turned out that they had only ordered three ice cream cones and the total was less than $4.  I was able to serve complete strangers in a fun way for only a little extra money!  It was a lot of fun!

One day, when we have more money, Nathan and I want to go to a nice restaurant and pick out a young couple and take care of their check for them.  And then watch their reactions when they find out their bill has been paid!
