I went shopping for vegetables today.

My dad was driving. Usually, he shops for his veggies on his own steam, but since he has Herpes Zoster, he said he’d just drive and sit in the car while I literally did the heavy lifting with my stellar cook, pictured above.

These packages of masalas were new to me. Usually, we buy each of these masala items separately. Seeing them pre-packaged like in the air conditioned supermarkets was interesting to me. I went, “Hmm, so the little guy knows how to add value to his packaging by creating a set of things for sale, just like the marketing gurus! Bully for him!”

I was expecting a lot more sun, with my city’s temperature in three digits this afternoon. However, the vegetable sellers had been enterprising enough to cover the open market area with tarpaulins and so we did our vegetable buying was under the shade of these makeshift covers.
