"Why didn't Carole go to the store yesterday?" Kurt asked Blaine.
Blaine gave him a judging look. "Really, Kurt? You really think I would know the answer to that? Maybe she had a good reason," Blaine replied.
"Well we don't have anything to eat," Kurt mumbled unhappily.
Blaine got up and helped hoist Kurt to his feet. "Let me have a look," Blaine said. Blaine knew that Kurt had a tendency to exaggerate about how much food was actually in the cupboards, especially if the only foods there were ones he didn't care for. Blaine led Kurt into the kitchen and started to paw through the cupboards.
Kurt was right, the cupboards were pretty barren.
"I could make you some Ramen Noodles," Blaine suggested.
"Gross. Too much salt," Kurt replied.
"Okay, um…" Blaine looked through the cupboards some more.
"Saltines and peanut butter?" he asked, holding the carton of Saltines and the jar of peanut butter out hopefully.
"No," Kurt replied.
"Would you like to order out instead?" Blaine asked.
"Eh, I guess so," Kurt replied.
Blaine found the Chinese menu on the table, on top of a note and an envelope. "Kurt, did you realize Carole left a note for us?" Blaine asked.
"No," Kurt replied.
"It says, 'Boys, I've left you $100. Please take this list and do the grocery shopping. Use the change to get food for yourselves," Blaine read. He looked at Kurt and started laughing.
"After all that, we were supposed to buy groceries," Blaine said.
Kurt sighed. "I'll drive," he said. They climbed into Kurt's car and drove off.
Blaine was happy to get out of the house for a while, but Kurt was just happy there would be decent food in the house.
