Saturday is Grocery Day!

I’m frustrated right now. This is the second time I’m typing my blog entry for today. For some reason, everything that I typed was lost when I saved my blog as draft! Well, whatever.

I know. There’s a storm (Pepeng). But I couldn’t help it! Today’s the scheduled time to replenish our supplies. Besides, we need to buy Carlos’ milk and diapers. I don’t want to go tomorrow (Sunday) for the primary reason that tomorrow is Laundry day. There’s always a day for something. And for us, Saturday is Grocery day!

Apart from myself, my wife, and my son were my mom and my sister. We all agreed to go to Festival Mall in Alabang. There wasn’t much rain (Thank God) but I admit, the wind was a little rougher. Nonetheless it was safe to travel by car. Surprisingly (or maybe not), there were a lot of people in the mall. I neglected to bring Carlos’ stroller because we were in a hurry to leave the house. I thought we’d rather rent one in the mall, which we did as soon as we arrived.

I multiplexed our time in the mall. While my mom and sister were window shopping for girly stuff, I decided to go straight to the grocery store and buy our supplies. Carlos and my wife tagged along with me primarily because my wife loved shopping for groceries as well. For some reason, I find enjoyment in grocery shopping. Ha-ha-ha. Sorry, I just remembered reading Richard Gomez’ blog and he pretty much shared the same thing. Turns out he loves going to S&R to shop for groceries. See? I’m not alone!

After all that, it was the women’s turn to enjoy themselves. This time, they went around to scout for accessories, that was the time it went downhill for me. I got bored. And when I get really bored, I look for something to do or something to eat. Fortunately (or unfortunately), I found one: Marshmallow Strawberry Blizzard.

When I emptied the cup (it was 9 oz), I felt guilty. To make up for that feeling, I told myself I will have to workout tonight.

It was a long day today, but it was all worth it. We replenished our supplies, Carlos’ needs are secure, and we had a good time. New purchases are Corned Tuna, Lucky Me Lomi, and a new flavor of Nestea Fit (Orange Lemon). If you think about it, there’s always something new in the grocery! Maybe that’s why I’m always excited.

Oh well, until next Grocery day! Hope you guys are safe.
