Buying groceries is not that easy.

Friends, I´m exausted. And I haven´t put away all the groceries I bought. And I have only eaten snacks instead of lunch. Buying groceries was extremelly difficult today. First of all I had to decide if it was worth it to be a prime costumer. And when I discovered that it was a good idea, the page would not let me complete my registration. After ages I discovered that they did not like my line phone. They wanted my cellphone number. So I changed it. And then I started to buy. I had a list and was going to stick to it as it was my second purchase of the month. But that was not to be. Prime members always have some offers. So now I have toilet paper (on sale) until I die. And I bought several delicious cans of seafood that I could have gone without. Quite inexpensive too, but it is cheaper not to buy any. Then I remembered that I wanted fresh mussels a month ago and they did not have it (probably because it was the Holy Week). Mussels in my country are very cheap if you buy the normal mussels that they take from the ocean. They are very fresh but full of weeds. You have to clean the shell before you boil them. Then there are the one that are "raised in mussel farms". Very clean and maybe full of antibiotics. AND a lot more expensive. These were the weedy wild mussels. Delicious but you have to work for it. And that I did. I was going to eat some with mayo right out of the pot but I´m too tired. I ate a salami sandwich, a piece of Camembert cheese and came to bed. While the mussels were boiling I cut up a giant breast of a chicken I bought. I want it for broths so I cut it in 7 pieces. I had never seen such a big breast. It looked like a turkey´s breast. The only thing left for me to do is to cut up and put away a trout I bought. I´ll cut it in pieces to eat when I´m alone. I don´t have money until August to invite anyone to such exquisite dish. Now I´ll take a nap and later on cut up the trout and take the mussels out of their shells. I´ll also save the water. I might make a mussel risotto sometime. Good night.
