is this normal behaviour? yesterday at marrickville metro, accompanying the boy to do his desperate and ultimately unsuccessful burst of christmas shoping for the year, i popped into the rather good metro grocer for a tub of yoghurt.
not ten minutes later, we stood at the cashier and i was signing a credit card receipt for $62 worth of yoghurt, halloumi, chocolate mousse, calabrian chili-marinated sardines, artichokes, plums, a vanilla pod, a marzipan stollen and a $20 panettone.

Uh huh – It’s normal in my books. How are you meant to NOT pick up chocolate mouse and chili sardines when they are right infront of u?
normal for this time of year. at other times it is normal but the list of goodies looks a little different.
oh! everyone is so understanding! well then, i hope you are doing the same. happy feasting!
tvdog: actually the goodies look similar in january too and sometimes even february, except that it’s discounted $8 panettone. hurrah for discounted tasty treats!
Metro Grocer – best place ever, especially if Rosa likes you
Totally normal, though to me it usually happens at Trader Joe’s.
