shopping, and a bit of walking

I have been to an athletic shoe (and clothes and gear) store, tried on shoes, and found a pair that fit! They didn't have it stock in the color I preferred, so they placed an order and the shoes will be delivered to my home.

Shoes aren't exciting, but I seriously missed being able to go into a store and try them on.

I walked from there along Cambridge Common and Church Street to L.A. Burdick, and bought chocolate mice and other candies. It was sunny and in the upper 50s F (12 or so C), and a very fine day to be walking rather than taking the bus a few stops.

Then I went to the supermarket and selected produce. It's still April, but I have a box of lettuce that isn't two days from expiration, and a few bananas of the ripeness [personal profile] cattitude and I like, plus bread and milk. A loaf of Pepperidge Farm pumpernickel from the supermarket, and an Iggy's baguette from the food shop next to my bus stop.

We have had a strange run of bananas lately. B brought home a bunch that were fairly green -- nothing new there -- but they went totally black before ever ripening up! Disappointing.
