Full Corn Moon<\/p>\n
Back from Costco and Festival.\u00a0 Costco combines an open space so vast that a four year old girl ran happily up and down the aisles like she was on a playground and an abundance of stuff that would make even Qin Shi Huang Di gasp.\u00a0 It’s not stuff fit for imperial burial, except for all the polyester and plastic.\u00a0 They will last into the next world and beyond.<\/p>\n
Shopping there involves navigation of a labyrinth designed to lead you to the Minotaur (the check out lanes) with as much of the abundance as you can fit in the superduper sized carts.\u00a0 I purchased bread, not just one loaf, but 3 2 pound loaves.\u00a0 Two 44 pound bags of dog food.\u00a0 24 bottles of Propel. 4 pounds of 13-15 count shrimp.\u00a0 You can not buy just one; it would be unAmerican.<\/p>\n
Festival supermarket has a bit more restraint, but it too involves navigation of rows and shelves designed for the impulse purchase of antipasto, squid, the odd pasta you have never seen before.\u00a0 Not much to buy there.<\/p>\n
Final stop.\u00a0 Best Buy.\u00a0 I picked up Beatles albums–Sgt. Pepper and Beatle’s 1–so I could have When I’m Sixty-Four to play tonight for the Woollies.<\/p>\n
Time for lunch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
