We scarcely ever have the days like this, but it's been a "shopping" day
, except that we forgot to buy me any cloth. (Perhaps because i hate shopping for cloth). I went to the remote part of the town, and mom joined me later, because she had been at the Kolpino's hospital where grandpa is staying for now, until they attain the surgery at "S.M. Kirov Military Medical Academy" in the city.
I went to "Avocado" (vegan shop) and got some cool stuff there. I also asked the assistant about peanut butter, as i've never tried it(!)
. Haha, it's not a mystery of course, because until these days there was no PB in here.
Luckily, she had a sample jar with a small amount of PB. It was vanilla-flavored. Usually i love vanilla fragrance and taste, but when i sniffed this thing, i fled in awe.
Definitely, it's not my cup of tea.
Sorry...
Then we went to the biggest shopping mall in the town and dropped into the furniture shop where we ordered 4 new doors for our flat.
And at the 2nd floor, at the grocery store, we bought: a pack of kale(!)
; a pack of shredded white cabbage (i'll freeze it for my future borscht); a small pail of sauerkraut; pink azerbaijani tomatoes
; korean-style pressed soy fiber (yuba); georgian-style chopped cabbage; "veggie" bread; disgusting juices; 2 packs of different varieties of plain hummus (as the other ones are too oily
); cookies and chicken for Gala. Today mom has her angel's day, so she invited her mates, Marine and Irene (they both have left already
), and bought them a lot of greasy food, such as cold boiled pork, cheese, a bunch of meat salads with tons of mayo, an expensive cake with lots of butter, and strong booze.
Btw, i convinced mom not to buy the strudel she wanted (it had the whole Mendeleev's periodic table of elements in its list of ingredients). We wanted to go to the restaurant, but everybody was hurrying us up, and we got on a bus. The weather looks like autumn now: gloomy, rainy, windy and cold.
At the vegan shop i obtained some samples and some rare products
. The assistant-cashier girl already knows me by the name and recognizes me every time i call her, - she's always ready to save some amaranth grist for me.
My trophies (from the left to the right): samples of new instant soups' varieties (chickpeas and beets); a jar of caucasian-style tofu pâté with cayenne and adjiga
; coconut-flavored carob "chocolate" (thanks
@Tom ); 3 plastic jars of amaranth grist
; real dark chocolate with mango chunks; sea buckthorn tea samples (it's liquid).
