The Buc-ee’s Bathroom Break That Wasn’t
We stopped at Buc-ee’s just to “use the bathroom real quick.” Rookie mistake.
Twenty minutes later, I’m pushing a cart (WHY do they even have carts at a gas station??), my toddler is licking a 3-pound bag of gummy worms, and my husband is deep in conversation with a complete stranger about beef jerky like it’s a fine wine tasting.
Meanwhile, I’m somehow standing there with:
- A cart full of fudge 🍫
- A brisket sandwich the size of my face 🥪
- Matching family Buc-ee’s shirts 👕
- And a cast iron skillet I absolutely did NOT need 🍳
The baby has a whole new wardrobe and is chewing on a Buc-ee’s spatula like a teether. The 5-year-old is proudly hugging a beaver plushie roughly the size of a Golden Retriever. 🧸
