the ramblings of a grocery store addict

If I had a book written about me, 

that would probably be the title. 

I love grocery shopping, food shopping in general really.

I can (and do, if given the chance) spend hours wandering up and down the aisles searching for new products and things i've never seen before. 

When I do find a new product, I'm like a kid at christmas. 

My brain goes into overdrive as I come up with all the things I could do with it.  

My food shopping love isn't a new thing, I've always been the one who wanted to tag along to the grocery store

and apparently as a baby grocery shopping (or shopping of any sort) was a sure fire way to cheer me up.

See, smart baby :P

But as I've gotten older my grocery store addiction has become a little more extreme,

probably because of the latest challenge i've set myself..

I must try one new thing each week

This is because of my constant yearning for variety and spontaneity in my food.

Food shopping has become something I do for fun 

(yes, you did read right.. I am actually eighteen and not an old woman in disguise) 

My favourite day of the week has become Tuesday because its the day where I spend my morning loading a cart full to the brim with fresh fruit and vegetables at the fruit market.

This also means my least favourite day is Monday. Not because its the start of the week, but because my fruit and vegetable supply become dismally obsolete.

I'm left with a sad looking fridge and a lack of choice for lunch or dinner.

While I realise that these aren't your average eighteen year old's actions or addictions,

I couldn't care less, because last time I checked, the unwritten social code of being a teenager is complete baloney! :P

 

But anyhow, my loves
Happy hump day!

 Does anyone else think the term "hump day" is kind of awkward?

I think it depends entirely on who you say it to, or who says it to you.. 

But it can be a little creepy, Especially when your middle aged teacher greets you with the phrase.

hmmm.

I'm off to spend my day with a bit of retail therapy. This time in the form of clothes shopping (if I can keep myself away from the home ware shops for long enough). Have a wonderous hump day! More on that home wares obsession another time :P

But before you go, tell me - 

How do you feel about grocery shopping?
