Question:A robber comes in a house that a rich person owns
and hears a voice saying, Jesus is watching you!
He goes into the kitchen and hears it even louder. Jesus is watching you!
He keeps going, room to room, and it got even louder as he comes to the bedroom.
He sees a parrot which he hears saying, "Jesus is watching you"
The robber is freaked out when he hears something moving behind him.
What is it???

Answer: It was Jesus, the owners Rottweiler. (dog)
How many people like to shop for food? I have to be honest. I like to stop at produce stands, selecting the yummy goodness of the fresh from the farm food, but seems like I am always making the fifty-yard dash through the grocery stores. Just to be done with it. Can I be the only one that feels this way?
Growing my own would solve it all, but, time doesn't allow such a large plot needed to cover all my needs.
Oh, the world of cheese! I spied one from the Nederlands and thought of my friend @dutchess! It has been so long since she has been here on the platform. When she decided to come back, she couldn't find the way back in. Hang on to those passwords, people. I can honestly say that when I first joined, I didn't think it was as important as it turned out to be.
Close your eyes, vegans. They have got some of that here. There was really no way to avoid it.
May I suggest that we close our eyes and run through this section!?? Hold hands now and let's make a dash for it! One, two, three... go!
I am nearing my way to the end of the line. I can almost see the checkout from here. Grocery stores this big are not the way I usually like to get my shopping done. The farmers market isn't open until today, so that is a no thank you for this week. In a short while, it will be open daily and my guy will save me all of his tomatoes that he cannot sell because they aren't perfect. I get them for a fraction of the price and make other things with them, things where they do not have to be perfect. Well, this does have a huge organic section, so all is well in the world. Have an awesome Friday!
A flower. There must be flowers. Always and forever, a flower to color my day.
They check you out, bag your groceries then bring them out to the car for you.
Service with a smile.
Tip!

Fridays are all about the #MarketFriday Challenge! Looking to take part in it? Here is how:
How to Participate:
1. Go to the market! Any market will do! Food, Clothing, Plant or Animal, if you wish. You can go to the zoo or an art auction. Anywhere or anything that you pay money for a service. I once went to a nail salon.
2. Take pictures! Be creative (or not)
3. Tell us a little bit about the market, what brought you here?
4. Post the picture(s)
5. Don’t forget to hashtag it! #MarketFridayChallenge by @dswigle
It is always interesting to see the different markets around the globe! C’mon! Show me your market shots! I eagerly await them!
I have been discovering new places, some right in my own area! This week, I discovered a new farmers market that will be a walkable distance! I find that super exciting! I love to share and be shared with! I am intrigued by different cultures. It is exciting and yes! I would love to see yours! Don't forget to take photos wherever you happen to be shopping - whether it be the grocery store, the local marketplace or even an art gallery, a kite festival!

I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.
they set my aunts house on fire
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
i’ve been praying,
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
later that night
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
warsan shire

Yes I made it with a narrow margin! I of course had a fun time with this one!

You just cant beat a Honeycrisp! For baking I find Galas do nice.
I rather enjoy shopping because then I can get what I want. I know that sound funny, but really it is quite a privilege!
Oh I would love to grow all my own and do the homestead life, up to a point though. I do like my appliances and internet. It is all a question of balance. Its quite a lifestyle commitment to go whole hog, pun intended!
I got the brain teaser!
Oh, no!! You just cannot beat a good Honeycrisp!! They are the cat's meow! Or a dog's bow-wow... you pick. I have never really loved shopping. Getting what I want? Hey! That is what God made lists for, no? It is a privilege to get what I want, but, I have found that my needs are few. I love everything, but, I also don't mind eating different salads or soups every night. I could live on soup.
You already know there are several go-to things in my refrigerator every week. It makes it all easier. And as much as I like homestead life, I want only certain aspects of it. Homesteaders do have internet, BTW. How do you think they all blog??
I got the brain teaser too! :) But, I still laughed. Did I use that one before? I hope not, but, tell me and If I did, I will swap it out! Well, I am hoping you have a great night!
!tip
Oh you know I got some soup for you! Has your name on it. I heard it is your favorite but you just dont know it yet LOL! I just know you cant wait to try some delish hamburger soup!! Or slop soup as you and the kiddos call it LOL! OMG
Yes I mean I do like being on the grid I suppose, however I am truly fascinated by wind and solar. Isnt life all about finding that balance. The longer I live, the more I believe it is so. Of course they use both on many sailboats now. So yes I agree with wanting the certain aspects of it.

Hi there!
I can't even remember the last time I went to a big supermarket. Nowadays I'm only buying groceries in the tiny markets from my own village. I'm done giving my money to big multinational companies, if I have alternatives!
Thanks for your post, @dswigle!
Join me in shopping, along the banks of river Ganga. Right from Haridwar, a religious place in India.

"It's market day, time for me to ketchup." Couldn't resist, plus, I'm SO far behind on here. Be lapping myself soon. I always greatly enjoy your shopping day extravaganzas. This one was spectacular. I actually don't mind grocery shopping, because I go to a local discount place, you never know what you'll find, it's really cheap (like me, or thrifty, like OGP), and they play the GREATEST music. Older dance-to-it-good tunes. So moving around the aisleways is always a breeze. I just twirl. Much to other folks shopping chagrin.
Your store does have an amazing array of fruits and vegetables. That is amazing. And as you say, better for you. How does that saying go? Stay to the outside rim of the grocery store. That's where the good stuff is. Though a detour to cookies is always a good thing too ( :
Thanks for another fun day out at the store with DS. I enjoyed it, as well as your new little on-the-go napping kitty.
As for the joke, my first thought was, Sylvester the Cat, with a new, more religious name. Oh well.
Hope your weekend is a grand one, and cheers to a Friday in May.
@ddschteinn
Oh yes! It's market time and I think I am all caught up! Finally! I lapped myself twice already so I may pass you any day now. I am finally getting to the caught up stage because I had to leave behind me when I hadn't gotten and was angsting about. I was gone for a few days and was working extra work and I just got so far behind that I had to leave the ones that were 6 days old and I hadn't answered yet and move on. I'm always trying to keep up with the current ones in work on the back ones. I finally decided that I was rolling myself up into a ball for nothing and I needed to move forward and beg for forgiveness from everybody. There weren't too many that I missed but enough. Even one comment not be answered doesn't feel good.
I I'm not with you on that grocery shopping thing. I hate to say it but I would rather be out running or walking in the park or taking pictures instead of buying food. I can tell you that if I buy food everybody is going through eyeball me at home until I prepare something out of this set food. If I don't have any oh, do you think I could get away with not cooking? Oh yes! Just twirl me right down that aisle. My girls used to pirouette down it and I let my son do it with the girls when he was little. I sure wish I had video of that so I could show it to his friends now.
I agree with you stay to the outside of the store on the rim. But what fun would that be? There's no cookies there! Yes yes! A detour to the cookies is good thing. Or the ingredients to make my own.
I want to thank you for coming along as I apologize for being so late last few comments. If it makes you feel any better I'm caught up on the others. You are always a Hoot and Holler to take a long. It's been a great time and thanks for coming!
#MarketFriday loves you!

Thank you for leaving the link on my post - that really helps! As for needing a lot of space to grow your own: you don't really. I must see if I can find photos of our old vegetable patch and share that. We had great tomatoes, herbs and leafy vegetables. Couldn't grow much in winter - not enough sun.
And here is my link https://partiko.app/@fionasfavourites/fionasfavourites-1557462452173-getting-myself-out-of-a-pickle-first-new-stock

Thank you so much for dropping the link. I know, what a whiner I am, but, it makes it so much easier!
I know I don't need much land, but, the land I have is the worst with the clay soil and it suffocates some of the plants before they mature, especially when there is a flash flood, although truth be told, the little bit of rain is just as bad.
Winter is that dormant stage that Mother Nature needs to regenerate anyway, so thank goodness.
Thank you so much for your awesome entry and for dropping the link! Appreciate all the effort and time spent!
#MarketFriday loves you!
!tip
No, you're not a whiner! At 5.45am, I am too lazy to look for your post, so I really appreciate the help!
We have clay soil, too. Seven years of working it, later, with compost and generally not giving up, it's getting easier. Not that the drought helped much. As for winter: because by comparison, our winters are mild, we grow quite a bit - peas, broad beans, carrots, garlic are all in/up and others in the planning.
Happy rest of the week.
See you on market day!

Looks like a one stop place to shop for food... :-)
It totally is, Mike! @manorvillemike
It has everything, all the time. I find it has the freshest veggies and fruit - discounting my own or farm stands. I used to only go there when I lived remotely.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you have a most fabulous Friday!
