Though not necessarily a creature of habit there are some of life’s small rituals I do habitually adhere to as I’m sure do most . One small habit I’ve habitually adhered to for years uncounted is to place all my “delicates” in the kiddy seat of the shopping cart at the grocery store. I’m certain that you might also be prone to flipping the plastic lid up over the little leg holes and presto…you now have a perfect ride for cup cakes and soft fruits…maybe the eggs and bread.
Well yesterday I found myself perusing the aisles of the local grocers with my usual load of cakes and soft fruits, eggs and bread nestled comfortably in the kiddy seat when the wine aisle stopped me dead in my tracks. A couple of minutes into the descriptive prose on various bottles of Chenin Blanc caused me to reach for the Sauvigon when I noticed I was being stared at .
A small passenger of a shopping cart kiddy seat sat across the aisle bug eyed and beat red while looking me directly in the eye as small grunts only made it all quite clear. That new clarity caused me to immediately remove my “delicates” and place them in the cart with the courser purchases…….
And it’s likely changed my shopping habits forever
