Grocery Shopping!!

I love grocery shopping! To a lot of people it may seem like a
chore, but to me it's an adventure. I like to see what’s new. What new things I
can try to make, cook, and EAT! When looking for recipes, I enjoy looking for
ingredients that I don’t have so that I can try something new. My hubby loves
to eat anything I cook, but as for going grocery shopping, no way. He makes
sure we have a list before we leave the house. A few weeks ago hubby and I were
in Chinatown in Philadelphia and saw TONS of different fruits and veggies and I
think I saw hermit crab. Weird. Well, just a whole bunch of different foods. We
decided to pick something out to give it a taste. We picked out the oddest
looking thing. It was brown and very prickly. It smelled weird. We asked
someone about it, she couldn’t speak English; all she said was “taste very good”
so we thought, hey why not trust the foreign lady who speaks no English, right?
So we bought it, brought it home… it was the grossest thing I have ever tasted.
Yuck! It was creamy kind of custard-like. Eww! What the heck? Who would eat
that? Honestly.  Still we had a good
laugh and I’m glad I got to try it. Now I know that’s one thing I DON’T like
and will never try again. You can’t say you don’t like it if you’ve never tried
it.
