I had a couple of things I've got to do: 1) I really need a haircut but am going to find a barber who is willing take on a challenge 2) I promised to visit the bike shop to hunt for a moderately-priced hybrid style bicycle. Today, I did neither.
I really fit into this unharried style of retirement. All those people driven, in a mad rush to accomplish something notable, really go against my grain. I know I have a lot of time this summer and for the rest of them. More importantly, nothing I need to do needs to be done right away.
Life is meant to be enjoyed through its errands.
An enormous selection of pre-mixed seasonings for all types of dishes.
We went over to Queensborough to stop at the Bulk Barn. It is an amazing little shop in 'the Landing' which carries, well, bulk foods. I never knew there were so many kinds of everything. How about pasta made from quinoa and kale? Or can I interest you in a bit of freekeh or amaranth? All types of dried fruits, even pears, are available. We generally get some grains for our morning oatmeal and nuts or seeds for snacking. We avoid the aisles and aisles of candy and bulk junk foods.
