More than anticipated.

Not all that I had hoped, or what I had thought.  The trash went out.  There wasn't that much but it needed to go.  *cough*  Yeah.  Then a trip to the post office.  I just decided to make it to town today.  I've been missing milk and cream, butter was low, and I haven't had veggies in a long while, or fresh mayo or salad dressings.  Well, and it was treat day.

I ended up hitting three stores.  The first was the bread store.  No sugar, real sourdough bread.  I want to try it, while monitoring blood sugar.  It would be nice to, from time to time, have some bread.  I'm just not up, quite yet, to working it.  Store bought, outright, doesn't work.  To be honest I really don't trust the labels anymore.  I was always a bit unsure, but now I just don't believe what is written.  Our government, on this and much else, has become a corrupted enemy to us.  There are shops that make bread though, locally, which I can at least offer the benefit of the doubt.

While at the bread store I ordered a sandwich.  Along with the loaf to go, I also bought two cinnamon rolls.  If I am going to go wrong, I'll go wrong knowingly, up front, and honestly.  It's been a long time since I have had a treat.  Too long.  Oh, my, are these good.

Next, a trip to one of the health food stores.  I don't buy organic, but I do like their standard rices and other grains, for the rare times I consume that.  Rice and oats, brown and whole(ish).  Oh, and I am trying one of their xylitol mouth washes.  It's a bit pricey, but maybe that is typical.  I didn't look at the price last time I bought, if another brand.  While I was at that spot, since my usual hair cutting spot was next door, I decided to get just a bit of a cut.  My regular gal is gone.  I am trying a new woman.  I've set up an appointment for next month.  Ugh, horrible at that, but I'll do my best.  Would like to get the shrubbery back into just a bit of a tidier bundle.

Finally, to my regular grocery store.  Milk, cream, butter, and more.  Salad making, fresh eggs for mayo and dressing, green onions and radishes to slice in a salad or two.  Oh, well, and I'll boil more eggs to add to a salad from time to time.  I sure miss milk.  Haven't had it for... months?  Oh my.  Or close.  And it's been rather irregular even then.

Oh, and before I went, I put some of the pans that had been left go far too long to soak, after I emptied them with the trash today.  Ackh!  I missed getting the big soup pot emptied.  I'll do that and get that out soon.  Very soon.  I'll bet that is brutal on the nose.  Though, being in the fridge, maybe not as bad.  I'll find out soon enough.  With the lid, the smell hasn't gotten into the fridge yet.  Yeah, I can smell.  But heavy lids hid much.  When I got home, I set them to a fresh soak.  Yeah.  Anyway.  Later.
