“Addicted”
WXLC/NextMedia Group

Mrs. Johnson:
Well doctor, I heard about it on the radio. It was just some idle Wednesday. They started talking about popcorn and candy and free cooking classes. Then they went on about bread, cheese, Michigan fruit and over 30 food vendors, and beef and pork. And they kept going saying there was bison, Alaskan Salmon, fresh squeezed lemonade, fresh cut flowers, fresh baked goods, free parking, free live entertainment and even treats for the dog!

Doctor:
Calm down Mrs. Johnson. (She takes a deep breath.)

Mrs. Johnson:
I apologize

Doctor:
Now what are you trying to tell me?

Mrs. Johnson:
The Grayslake Farmers Market...I'm addicted to it! I can't stop going every Wednesday

Doctor:
Where is this Grayslake Farmers Market?

Mrs. Johnson:
On Slusser at Center St. West of Route 83 in charming downtown Grayslake.

Doctor:
When?

Mrs. Johnson:

Doctor:
You already said that...what time?

Mrs. Johnson:
3-7pm. I just can't help myself-

Doctor:
Listen woman! Do they have free parking?

Mrs. Johnson:
Yes, it’s free!

Doctor? Doctor! Where are you running too?
