Cornucopia

[thessalian]

Short-ish lunch with parental unit should not be this tiring. I am fragged. However, as we were in Chinatown (I showed my mother the Tokyo Diner and she liked it, so yay, I win again) and then stopped in Covent Garden to hit the Maple Leaf and the Canada Store, I came home with the following:

- Something like 8 packs of ramen, and 2 udon packs
- A 1L bottle of soy sauce (because we're always running out)
- Mochi!
- A box of Kraft macaroni & cheese
- A bag of 'that cherry-flavoured plastic' (read: Nibs)
- 1 Coffee Crisp bar
- 1 jar pickles (you can get them here but they're not the same, damnit)
- 1 can A&W root beer (I had a craving)
- amazingly, 1 can Mountain Dew. I didn't even know they sold that stuff in the Canada Store but hey, now I have some! Woo-hoo!
- 4 buffalo wings (that aren't really - tolshak would be so disappointed) left over from Maple Leaf snack food

That on top of the oatmeal and sloppy joe mix and St Hubert BBQ sauce, same as the last time. I didn't have the heart to tell her that I haven't even finished the last stuff yet. She also got me a new handbag 'cos the zipper on mine's busted. So now I have this kind of awesome tan-ish cloth bag with all manner of pockets, so less need to wear a jacket. Which is good because I nearly sweltered to death out there today.

...I have Mountain Dew! *happydance*

And now I'm incredibly bored so am going to go investigate dinner possibilities. Likely it'll be mac n' cheese or something, as I really have no desire to do anything complicated. I'll also go see if I can beat some sense into the DVD player; I managed to make it work yesterday but it borked at the worst possible time and I couldn't be arsed with the Xbox. *sigh*
