Weekly Grocery Shopping
While not always the same, the picture below is a fairly typical weekly purchase at the local supermarket.

Everything from milk and Dijonaise mustard, to eggplant, two types of tomatoes (only the red ones are organic - supposedly!), little bok choys, califlower, broccoli, hot peppers, four types of mushrooms, a red onion, bananas, ginger, ears of corn and carrots. The two bars of soap are notbought typically each week but YES, regularly (as needed - grin)! The sesame bagel was bought while sending my ballot to Grand Junction from the U.S. consulate in Shanghai on Friday (along with a loaf of sourdough). I FAXed it! Waiting on confirmation though. OH - and a Coca Cola bottle that fits in the fridge. I still have orange juice, Welch's red grape juice and beer in the fridge so no need to pick them up! I cart this all home in my backpack. A plastic bag now costs 2 jiao, if you need them. I can not even imagine how many fewer bags there are blowing around in the streets now!!
Oh, I like how the flash reflects off the glass of the dinning room table - very big grin.
