Shopping #1

*(fridge)Japanese eggplants (front), giant carrot, more carrots, green bell pepper, cooked chickpeas, portabellas, asparagus, cooked quinoa, soy milk + more*


Sorry there was no posts yesterday. I had to go to work with mom so that we could do some of our Re-stock Shopping (once a month we do a large re-stock shopping trip, so the freezer and cabinets get restocked, then we buy fresh groceries every week), and then I had rock climbing last night. So yesterday we went to the Oriental Grocer, The Apple Crate (small health food store), and Sam's Club, then this morning we went to Wal-mart (yes I shop at wal-mart, do not judge me). Here was the load. I also got some extra pantry stuff for storage just in case of ice storms/ hurricanes/ other natural disaster (like tomatoes, beans, tofu etc...)



3 medium Japanese eggplants
1 HUGE carrot + 2 pounds carrots (bagged)
4 boxes shelf-stable firm tofu*

2 pounds bananas
12 pounds Japanese sweet potatoes (the white ones)
12 oz quinoa
