The Supermarket Incident…
Folks sometimes ask me about the title, “Why girl in a food frenzy?” I’ve answered that it’s simply because there are quite a few frenzy filled moments in my life. Here’s a classic giaff moment from the other day:
We were shopping in the supermarket on Sunday night (and in somewhat of a rush too.). I was in the cosmetics aisle, picking up soap, bath gel, deodorant & the like. As it was a very crowded aisle, my sweetheart hovered at the end and we agreed we’d meet back at the toilet paper/tissues etc. I eventually returned to our trolley (he’d gone for a little wander,) and dumped my stuff into it. I saw my sweetie had bought the wrong toilet paper, so swapped for our usual brand Quilton and put the other stuff back on my shelf…
That is, until in I saw my sweetheart with our trolley, quickly heading in my direction asking “what are you doing!” and I noticed the bewildered asian gentleman, who stood beside me & wondering what I was doing in swapping some of his groceries out and putting things back on the shelf…
Yes folks, that’s when the total embarrassment & mortification set in…
Moral of the story, ‘don’t shop in a hurry,’ which roughly translates to here’s a meal you can cook in a hurry! Aka, the ingredient shop which led to the supermarket incident from Sunday night.
These Spatchcock with Fennel rub & crispy duck-fat Kipfler Potatoes might just be worth the public humiliation I endured the other night.
Whether I can ever show my face at that supermarket again is yet to be decided….
