Grocery, Here I Come.

I haven't set my feet in a big grocery since November I think. So imagine we are stock depleted. My son is complaining there is no more snacks he can get in his part of the pantry. So finally we will do some grocery shopping in a while. How is your day so far?

I spent a lot of the day sleeping. My brother came by at noon and brought some groceries for us. I told him we didn't ask for more groceries... He told me he's still allowed to bring some if he feels like it. I hope you get everything you need. Have a good day.

@rakski I went to bed early last night and will spend as much of today resting as I possibly can.

I prefer doing it in a physical store, sometimes when I do online grocery they will change the brand so I do not like that

@rakski I love going to stores and malls, but I can't due to physical and mental illnesses so I do all my shopping online. I live with my parents too so they are the ones doing the physical shopping. I don't ask them for food. I just need a roof over my head for now. I pay for my food, internet, phone bill, etc. I would pay for rent as well, but I don't have that kind of money right now because I'm out of work due to chronic pain.

I did grocery shopping also, and at two different stores. I wanted to pop into Dollar Tree but they had the doors locked and nobody around; very odd!

Wow that’s really impressive you’ve been so long since you’ve done a big grocery trip. I need so many things and it’s only been a week since I was out.

I don't like to grocery shop. We go maybe once a month and just grab fresh milk from the local expensive store (big store is 45 minutes away.) Next week, I'll have to go for fresh produce. My son is growing lettuce inside the house using a hydroponic system.

@rakski He has a few set up. It's really easy. It's nice here in the PNW where it's hard to grow outdoors with so much rain, marine layer and cool weather.

Sounds fun! Yesterday I visited a large grocery store on the way home but unfortunately I had already done the shopping the day before and it was getting late. I was only looking for the restroom to be honest, but it seemed like they had lots of amazing stuff I've never seen where I usually go. Sadly it's too far from home so I can't buy much, especially when it comes to refrigerated or frozen products. I hope I'll get a chance to visit again soon and get something.

@somewitch oh yes, you remind me to eat the tortilla wrap with my ground beef there sitting inside the ref. I also to do not like to waste food

@rakski Yes, I just had to throw away some tortilla wraps because they were expired. I'm very afraid of food waste. I tried to make some from scratch with flour but they turned out too thick. I couldn't make them too thin or they'd break. Pretty sure I needed a stronger flour, oh well. I'm having flatbread instead of tortillas, it is what it is.

My day was very busy. I am relaxing now. Cooked at home and then went to church. Then laundry, pharmacy and grocery. I bought ready made foods at the grocery and we had a picnic of sorts in the car. I am only using the washers at the laundromat as my washer is broken. Now I am at home relaxing and running the dryer.

I usually don't ever need to do a "major shop," since I often have to replace certain perishables, so I am in a store at least once a week and sometimes twice a week depending, and because I run my pantry like a business, I usually always have plenty.
