Digging for gold

Seen on the el this morning: Young, upwardly mobile suburban mom, bringing baby girl and stroller downtown. Just about everything on both mother and daughter had a highly visible label. Land's End, J. Crew, Jeep are just the ones I can recall. They were both wearing purples and lavendars. They both had their shiny dark hair pulled back in ponytails.

As Mom sipped her Starbuck's latte and chatted animatedly on her Razr, her perfect little girl (strapped into the stroller and safely out of Mom's sightline) dug around in her nostril and proceeded to eat the contents.
