Something Fresh

My family went shopping at Walmart the other day, we bought what we have to buy and forgot some other things in the grocery list. We forgot to buy cooking oil, fabric softener, dishwashing liquid for dishwasher machine and bags of chocolates and other trick and treat snacks for kids. I didn't forget my reason for going to Walmart. What I really need is to purchase thread, machine's oil and new sewing machine needles. Then I forgot the color of thread. I bought the grey, black, white and red thread (in a set of 4) but forgot to buy the fuschia and pink thread. Oh my! That's what happened when we are in a hurry. My husband doesn't like staying longer inside the department store or supermarket. He 's not into window shopping or browsing around. When he goes to supermarket he's there at the meat section. He wants to see if he can avail of discounted meat: beef for roast beef, pork loins, poultry products. The meat are fresh and not previously frozen most of the time. Why the meat are on sale? That I don't know. It happens not everyday. We didn't forget the vegetables. I wish they have the veggies that I like but you know tropical veggies don't grow here in Canada.

I missed veggies such as malunggay, eggplant, bittermelon, okra, upo, patola, banana heart, breadfruit and jackfruit the fresh ones not canned. I miss fresh tuna fish, fresh red snapper, fresh galunggong, fresh biya, fresh dilis or anchovies and alamang. The list goes on and on.

So next time, I really have to bring a piece of paper with all the listed items that I need to buy. I don't like getting out this time of the year when it's hot at one point in time and then cold the next...because the up and down range of weather temperature hot and cold  can cause headache and you know what happens next? Sometimes it's the cause of colds. There are people who are having cough and colds already and worse if they have fever. None are affected here at my home, thank God! But you know better be safe than sorry. Take care everyone.

P.S. Freddy the cat came to visit us and I don't have Whiska so that too will be on my grocery list.
