Going shopping

My husband hates to go shopping. In our family I usually do it. Saturday is my shopping day but I buy fresh bread every day. I buy meat and fish once a week. There is always a wide selection of meat and sausage at the butcher’s not far from our block of flats. I usually buy fresh, frozen or smoked fish at the fishmonger’s. I also buy cereal products, flour, different spices, mayonnaise and margarine at the dry grocery.

I usually go to the market to buy fruit and vegetables. In winter we buy potatoes, carrots, beetroots, garlic, bananas and oranges. In summer we often buy watermelons raspberries, strawberries and other berries. I must admit the prices on foodstuffs in Kyiv are rather high and they are constantly going up. Sometimes I find it difficult to make both ends meet.

Yesterday my husband and I went shopping. I made a shopping list and indicated what and how much to buy. First we bought rye bread, rusks and rings at the baker’s. Then we dropped in at the confectionery. We wanted to buy waffles, biscuits, liqueur bonbons and marmalade. We also called at the supermarket. We ran out of coffee and wanted to buy it. We bought natural coffee in grains, because I prefer it to instant coffee. We also bought a packet of bay leaf, a tin of condensed milk, two packages of processed cheese, a jar of pickled tomatoes, a packet of spaghetti. First we chose the items, put them into the shopping cart, then at the cash-desk we paid money, got our change and left the shop.

On our way home we bought a good-sized head of cabbage at the greengrocer’s.

What it means:

You scored 12 to 19: You probably don’t know what this questionnaire is about. You think there are more important things in life than fashion, but perhaps you are a bit lazy, too. How about going shopping yourself – your mother/ father/ wife/ husband/ girlfriend/ boyfriend has got enough to do!

You scored 20 to 28: Clothes are not the most important thing in your life, but you know what suits you. You have a very personal style but it is always the same. Why don’t you take some risks and try a different style for a change? You are too serious – fashion can be fun!

You scored 29 to 36: You are a fashion victim! Do your friends ever walk on the other side of the road when they go out with you? You know a lot about fashion, but you need to choose the clothes that suit you. There are more important things in life than clothes – try speaking to people and you will be surprised to find that they are nice, even if they are wearing the wrong shoes.
