A day in the life here often includes grocery shopping. Most of the locals literally do there shopping on a daily basis. I generally go 2-3 times a week. However it's a bit more complicated. I end up going to three places typically. The first being an "import" store where I can get many things like canned soups, salad dressing, mustard, tuna fish, etc. There is also a deli of sorts, meat section and bakery. From there I walk home carrying my bag or bags. Then it is a trip to another "import" type store that has a tremendous amount of fresh veggies and fruits. While they have the other stuff the selection is much more sparse. Lastly I make a stop at convenience store close to home and buy liquids - juices, gatorade and soda. Reason being you the heavy stuff like that takes it's tool walking around the city so it's best to do close to home.
All in all I can find most anything I need but generally need 2-3 stops to get it done. By the time I get home I'm either ready to eat or ready to take a nap...or both!
