The dreaded "gathering of food" by leggzy

The dreaded "gathering of food"

aka - grocery shopping - not my most favourite thing to do, in fact I loathe it! And this time of year I loathe it even more. I was out early to beat the crowds (& the heat!), and was home by about 10am....now it all just needs to be cooked for Christmas Day (I don't mind that part).
Interestingly, this year in France there are no public holidays around Christmas (or New Year) as it falls on a Sunday. So, everything's open as normal on Saturday, and open again on Monday. It certainly takes the pressure off of the Christmas food shop - I know I can food shop until Saturday evening, and there's no pressure to plan for the following days either, as it's business as usual. Strange in a country which has a 35-hour work week and a lot more public holidays in a year than many other European countries. Anyway, I digress; a lovely shot of a mundane chore! A merry Christmas to you when it comes round!

It looks like you're about to charge down the aisle like a rampaging bull. Look out everyone I'm coming through!! 😀😀

Completely opposite, I would love to do the shopping and let others to cook.

Me to... I've been away the last 2 weeks at work and ventured to the shops to stock up, but ended up running away in terror. I can't believe how busy the supermarket is this time of year. Ridiculous. ...

As long as I have the dog's meat and morning dog chews, all that matters in the shopping trolley according to the sausages that is :))

Nice and quiet - we went yesterday to beat the Xmas rush, but think everybody must have had the same idea!

A really good POV! I plan to get up early and shop tomorrow - hopefully it will be as quiet as your trip!

I hate it when my wife asks me to go with her in the food stores, but then, I enjoy eating what is cooked.

No one likes this chore....we take turns!

It looks very quiet, I plan on heading out early tomorrow to finish mine. I don't mind the shopping. It's putting it all away when I get it all home that I don't like :)
