The thing about today is that my refrigerator is near out of vegetables and I have little to no inclination to go out in this weather to the vegetable market and lug a huge backbreaking bag of vegetables.
Of course one could cycle there and I do, takes me three minutes at that but bringing that overstuffed bag, tipping the scales at more than five kgs back on a cycle is a mission and I usually end up walking.
One could say that I needn't buy so many vegetables but here's the thing; the small corner shop where I'd usually buy small amount of veggies has oddly closed down which means I need to visit the large vegetable market and there's no stopping once you see an array of so many colours in front.
Then you end up buying everything from greens to fruits to fish to tofu and what not and that's exactly why I only visit the big market on only some certain days, opting for the small shop on days when I need only small particular supplies, like maybe I need a pumpkin or some mushrooms etc which is exactly what I need.
Like I have the building blocks what with onions and tomatoes and potatoes but it's the other things like carrots and capsicum that I need and once I'm at the bigger market I know I'll come hands full with things I could do without for the meantime like chrysanthemum greens, Chinese Kale, endamame etc.
Life, I tell you, doesn't get easy.
