#MarketFriday : Market Comes To Me | IAAC Year 2

avatar



It felt just like yesterday when I used to be the one to trek to the supermarket last year. It was the height of the plandemic lockdowns. I could move around easily and carry heavy loads then. So much has changed, esp when Mom was gone. I seldom go out walking as it takes quite a lot of effort to walk long stretches.

My daughter does the grocery shopping these days. She splits her purchases into online purchasing and grocery trekking. Such is the case for this #marketFriday. I did have to go down to the ground floor to get the delivery. Well, I made it!! 😂🤣 I survived the walking exercise.



Thankfully, it wasn't too heavy to carry, just a rectangular box containing around 3-5kg of wet market items. It's the third time we purchased via Pacific Bay shop. It's a breeze from ordering to delivery as it only takes a day. My daughter ordered the items yesterday. The items got delivered today. C.O.D.



A-ha the seafood tofu is new. I think this is set for Friday dinner meal. 🤔🤔



The usual fish fillet that I prepare on Monday nights. This pack is good for two weeks of meals.



Then, there's chicken for Tuesday nights. My daughter brings packed lunch to work. I usually cook enough for dinner and lunch the following day.



More fish for Wednesday night. She does the cooking on midweek night. I'm glad for the bit of rest.



Thursday night is salmon night. I just usually bake it with garlic lemon butter sauce. 😋😋

It has been a while since I joined @dswigle's #marketFriday initiative. I hope next time around we could go out and enjoy visiting markets in person.



I still have work tomorrow, so I couldn't celebrate just yet. 🙄🙄

Nice! I live quite far from any supermarket. All I have around here is minimarkets who don't even sell fresh fish or meat. 😣

A very beautiful post. You bought a lot of food which actually looked very beautiful

Do you shop every Friday or do you choose Friday to buy the things you need?

Hello, @iamraincrystal !! It has been a while since I have seen you, but I am glad to hear from you and even better that you have a #MarketFriday post to go with your hello! :)

Online ordering is the easiest for so many people and it does make sense when you think about it. I am glad it wasn't too heavy and it contained some things that looked yummy to you! I have never seen seafood tofu! You will have to let me know what it tastes like. I am not sure they even sell it here.

The salmon looks delicious. I love salmon with lemon and butter! How lucky that your daughter cooks during the week! Some nights, I have to hold myself back from saying I don't feel like cooking that night! LOL Thanks always for being a part of #MarketFriday! I love it!

I love the concept of #MarketFriday and how our cultures differ and then again, how much they are alike. Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, even your language/languages. Along with the fact of what is normal for where you live? These are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I had hoped that posting here will familiarize you with the world around you just a little bit more. Viewing it from a more personal level as opposed to the newsworthy level gives me a better understanding of the people and a view that is often not seen on television. Sometimes, it seems like I learn more on some social media about a certain incident than what the news tells me.

I appreciate the amazing support given to #MarketFriday! Thank you! Your participation adds a piece to your world, and I have to say, people are interested in seeing it. This entire challenge has opened up the world to me and so many others. Thank you again for being a part of all this! I am so happy to see you here! I hope you have a fabulous day! Hive on!!

Fridays are all about the #MarketFriday Challenge! Looking to take part in it? Here is how: I put this in for those reading your post, so they will know the rules.

Rules of the Road

  1. Go to the market, or anywhere that you pay money for a service.
    Take pictures! Be creative!
  2. Tell us a little bit about the market or the event. What brought you there? What did you buy? How much did it cost?
  3. Post the picture(s) Of course, you should tell a little bit about the ones you post
  4. Use the MarketFriday Community Platform to post #hive-196308 (this is not required, but appreciated)
  5. Drop the link into the MarketFriday comment section so I can find it
  6. Following me and reblogging the post so more see it would be appreciated !! Not a rule, just appreciated, more vision for more views on your posts!
  7. You must put #MarketFriday by @dswigle somewhere on your post. If you don't and someone reads it, there is nothing to tie #MarketFriday to that post.
  8. Please only one post each week. Believe it not, I run out of voting power if you put in many more than that.

As always, please remember! #MarketFriday loves you!
