Well, I didn’t really have a shopping spree, more like grocery shopping spree. I went to Coles and I couldn’t help but buy things that were on sale! Admittedly, I did need stuff anyway but I got it at a cheaper than usual price. Somehow I remind myself of Suet and coincidentally there is such a thing called Suet in the supermarkets. I shall take a picture of it soon. Speaking on which, I saw a gal on Friday that looked exactly like Suet on Friday, I almost walked up to her to say hi. Thankfully I didn’t cause obviously its not Suet who is in USA.
I digress.
Grocery shopping is so fun! OMG, I feel like an aunty la walking down the aisles and looking for the cheapest bargain there. Eh, I got sunscreen for $2.99 ok? It’s damn cheap lo. Can’t blame me right
I am constantly on the road for work and need to protect my poor arms which get burnt in the summer sun. I picked up cans of tuna for 98 cents and there are cans of baked beans for $1, which I’m going to buy tomorrow. Haha….I think right, if you dumped me in Coles I can go shop non stop. I feel like a housewife buying groceries. OK, sometimes while I shop, I pretend I’m on a limitless budget and just walk the aisles wishing I could buy everything I see. Yes, I have an over active imagination.
I think grocery shopping is quite therapeutic. I tend to focus on what to buy and what I can make with the things I can get off the shelves. I think sometimes I can take hours just doing the shopping, thinking and planning for lunches and dinners. I must be getting old.

I have to constantly remind myself when I’m grocery shopping that I’m cooking for one (not a family). Mind you, I never realised how much I actually eat until I got here =). It’s good fun when you look at the fridge and go ‘where did all that food go?’…
Mum is so excited with your job offer and equally looking forward towards shopping with you when we are there in dec……
Nic: It’s actually crazy how much food I shovel in. I bought biscuits and cans of tuna over the weekend and I’m still making my way through the stash. I’m assuming you eat a lot just cause its cold in Scotland and you’re a guy
Dad: I can’t wait to go shopping! Though most of the shops might be closed over Christmas, but I’ve got a Myer special sale invite. I need work clothes Haha
Admittedly i do eat alot. But then again, I have to wonder where all the food goes – I’ve only put on 1kg since I got here…
Nic: Don’t forget, you are a guy and you do play a lot of sports
