Go away, Rain!

grocery shopping was extremely tough today.. i'm so tired.. but glad that i'm now snuggly tuck in bed with my electric blanket switched on to the highest power while typing this! haha..

i missed my bus, 100, because i was waiting for a pair of socks to dry in the the dryer.. i ended up cold and wet, waiting at the bus stop for 30mins before the next one came.. i alighted at the 2nd stop (yup, i could have walk! but the weather makes it tough!) not knowing that the 3rd stop was actually closer to The Parade~ *sigh* braved the cold and rain and walked quickly towards Foodland.. i heard from Miyuki that this supermarket offers better prices than Coles!

i was all frozen when i got there and Cibo Espresso was warm and inviting! i went in for a cup of Hot Chocolate and had a Mignon Babá.. gosh! it was so yummy! the sponge cake was saturated with a sweet syrup and alcohol.. and not to mention the vanilla custard in the center! deliciously sinful! http://www.ciboespresso.com.au/

after this tiny break, i went in to Foodland and got a full bag of groceries with my staples of milk, bread, ham.. a box of biscuits, loads of veggies, some chicken thigh fillets and some minced pork.. i havent thought of what to do with them but i guess i'll know when the time comes! hehez..

i realised i should have just gone to the city to get groceries when i had to balance my umbrella with my groceries! i know the timings for the buses in the city better and there are more sheltered places to hide while waiting for the buses.. the bus stop for 100 near The Parade does not have a shelter.. lucky for me, 100 came within 5mins.. i really dont think i can last much longer with the heavy load while the wind and rain attack me!
