Curses, missed a shot at getting someone else to do the grocery shopping. Stupid body and its stupid napping tendencies. (Incidently, how long am I going to be doing the sleeping every three hours thing, Doc? Amanda? I'm taking a random guess and saying it has to do with replacing energy, yeah?)

Right. So despite Em's trip to the market for essentials of foodage, I have discovered that I'm still woefully understocked on some of the stuff I use regularly. Man does not live on peanut butter and bread alone, at least not if I can help it. So, I will be taking a short trip following classes tomorrow, no more than a few hours tops and to boring places to boot (speciality food shops) but I'm going to offer to take along people anyway. I'm not, however, taking errand requests. You want something, come along.


I feel like I'm forgetting something...

Oh right.

Nice to be back among the living.

Why waste the money getting someone to do it for us when we can go ourselves?

It is more fun that way, besides. How do you know if there are new flavours of crisps if you don't see them at the store?

It is not my _job_ to know what flavours of crisps there are in the store. That's what domestics are for. Their job is to anticipate our needs and satisfy them before we're aware that they exist.

A good servant is a treasure.

*sigh* Save me from the middle class.

You are missing the point. It is more fun to go to the store, see that they have Guacamole Flavoured Doritos and decide that, yes, you might like to try those, just the once.

But, if you do not want to go, more cookies for me, then.

Do they go with Mountain Dew, is the question. Because Doritos that don't go with Mountain Dew are abomination.

They were at the store the last time I was there, so I think so. I am reluctant to try them, because I am not sure I know what a Guacamole is*, and it has mole in it, which is a furry brown creature.

* I think it is an avacado dip?

It is the avocado dip! You've not had any yet?

...

We're getting you proper dip while we're out shopping. Or the makings of. Lorna can make a killer guacamole dip, I've no doubt. :D

Avocados aren't in season right now. That being said, I'll check into getting some from an orchard near my parents house. That might have a few that aren't wholly worthless.

Hey, you want fruits that only grow when the weather is suited to them, you're making googly eyes at the wrong girl. I can only make you metal fruit sculptures.

*grins*

You said you might be able to get some, no?

And careful what you say. Someone might take you up on it. ;)

Might. I will do my best.

Hmm, good point.
