Today: therapist, then shopping.

Therapist is recovering from Covid. I gave her some firm advice about not starting to exercise for Quite Some Time for better chances at avoiding Long Covid.

Since Belovedest is at the local convention this weekend, I was for shopping solo. (And I sent my chemo team a message about renewing my placard.) As I headed out, we were getting Wintery Mix. It got worse as I approached the Costco. I contemplated turning around, but we were then looking at Friday, or the actual weekend, and ugh.

There was still some slush on my bumper when I came out, but there was less precipitation by that point.

Stopped by Home Goods and Trader Joe's; the former had those rings you put on your rolling pin to govern the minimum thickness of your dough, and the latter had the bread I hadn't realized I needed to ask for at the Wednesday night trip. [Edit: woops, fixed]

Safeway was fine. I had a hankering for roast beef sandwiches, which I decided to indulge in a constructive way (sliced lunch meats, rather than pre-formed sandwiches). I'd forgotten the list in the car, but fortunately most of the tracking was taking place in my head rather than on the physical object.

I beat Belovedest home, but just barely. My cocktail spikes had arrived, so once I run them through a dishwasher I will be able to skewer small fruits, vegetables, and other cocktail garnishes properly. Because I am no fun, I got the set with the plain ball ends (because they seem less of a dishwasher problem than the others). Because I am slightly fun, I also got a small set of sword style ones, because that's Belovedest's favorite kind. I just don't expect washing them to be my favorite activity.

Next on the list: a dishwasher cup to support the washing of smaller items. I just have to send it to Belovedest.

Sounds like great adventures!

One small note: your usage of former and latter are reversed.

You might be amused to know that it was the bread at Homegoods that twigged me to the misuse. Given TJ's penchant for odd gifts I thought the rings might be plausible (albeit on a rolling pin, perhaps).

Congrats on your mercantile adventure. Mundanity is a welcome change.
