A week and a half or so ago, Mrs. Hubbard made a special request to see the grocery store we shop at. We shop at Woolworths most frequently; we've tried other stores and haven't liked them nearly as much. Everything is packed in plastic, down to singleton peppers, but all the fruits and vegetables taste really good. The main candy I find in the stores is chocolate, chocolate with caramel, chocolate with nuts, chocolate with truffle, but I haven't seen chocolate with peanut butter yet, which is a bummer since my favorite candy is Reeses. Ostrich meat is interesting, we've found, and we eat it almost as often as beef.
When I last saw her, my grandmother gave me the idea of doing a picture a day of our move to South Africa. I thought it was an interesting topic to blog on, so that's what this is.

Funny. Woolworths used to be the "Dime Store" in the States (many, MANY years ago!)
ReplyDeleteSo now it's for food in South Africa!
What does the ostrich meat taste like? And don't say "it tastes like chicken"!
