RE: To Market, to Market: By Market Friday

in Market Friday2 years ago

It's not one of my strong points, no. I'm not even going to try and deny it...lol. I remember one Christmas season when we went shopping for Christmas gifts and my wife had something particular in mind for a certain family member. We went from one shop to another and we just couldn't find what she was looking for...

At about shop #5, a salesperson approached and asked if he could help. I jokingly asked if he could please just direct us to the nearest exit... Oops, not funny in my wife's books and I wasn't very popular for the rest of the afternoon...lol.

Same with preparing food... I'd rather work in the garden, growing it. But please spare me from working in the kitchen preparing it. It's just not me...lol.

It doesn't mean I don't have favorite dishes... My wife makes a dish that I know as Curry Eggs & Rice. It consists of cooked eggs that she cuts and serves on rice. She then covers it with a curry sauce. Oh man, I can't get enough when she makes it...

In all honesty, when I became aware of #MarketFriday, I thought I would never be able to write a post for this project/community...because I thought it would only be "shopping-related". It was only after reading a few of the #MarketFriday posts published by @tattoodjay, that I realized that I would not have to go shopping every week. I then also saw a post by yourself (@dswigle) where you wrote about visiting a canoe shop, and looking at canoes if I recall correctly...

That's when I thought to myself... "Wait a minute, I can do this if I don't have to spend time in a grocery shop every week"...lol.

But I take my hat off to all of those of you who are good at it!
