Past Simple vs Past Continuous  
Julia: I had an awful day:
I was sitting on the balcony drinking a cup of coffee,
The sun was shining
Someone was playing a violin in the street
I was enjoying a beautiful afternoon
I was feeling hungry

So I decided to make spaghetti

But I realized that I didn't have any tomato sauce
I went to the grocery store to buy some
I finally found the tomato sauce
 
I was reading the label
when the jar just slipped out of my hands and fell
down
 
There was glass and red sauce all over the floor
