When you put your hand in your pocket and suddenly think, "Oh no, I've got a bag of dog poo in my pocket!"
It wasn't.
I had a bag of soft dog treats leftover from yesterday's walk. Did make me chuckle though - once I'd got over the momentary horror.
How is it possible to go shopping with a list and still forget something on the list? Oh, yes, when you don't look at the list once it's in your bag.
And going to a market when you're hungry (for hungry I really mean greedy) and there is stall after stall selling yummy goodies isn't a good idea either. I settled for a chocolate Malteser stuffed croissant for Husband and a lemon tart for me.
Confession : I ended up with the Greek dinner dishes after the lady offered me a taste and then I couldn't say no. Again. But there's football on tv tonight, that's my excuse for not cooking a proper dinner. Fairly lame as football doesn't start until seven and I probably won't watch it anyway - although I have bought a packet of prawn crackers as a treat in case I do.

I'm surprised YOU didn't go for the Malteser-stuffed croissant! I thought Maltesers are your fave goody?
They are but it was a bit too much even for me!
I've gone shopping and come home without an item on the list even though I looked at the list. Top that!
Love,
Janie
A king could die of a surfeit of Maltesers in history books. That's an example of a surfeit.
The last time I took my list into the store I couldn't find a pen in my purse to cross items off (and of course I forgot to put one in there once I got home). However, thanks to your post I remembered.
Ah, the old poo in the pocket. Farmers' markets are dangerous even if you go with a full tummy.
You win, Janie.
I'll have you know, Boud, I have two (2 TWO) unopened boxes of Maltesers from my birthday. I am saving them for ... actually what? Why am I not eating them?
That's impressive crossing off items too, Kathy.
Tell me about it, Merlot.
