Sunday evening, after returing from our holiday travels, my first errand was to pick up milk from our local grocery store. One of the nice things about living downtown is that there is a Publix grocery store only a few blocks from away. In fact yesterday I walked to the store and back … The green signs, at street level, say “remember to bring you bags”. You can see my shopping bags in the foreground. I wonder if this a common practice around the world … For our international visitors do you bring your groceries home in paper, plastic, or cloth? And how common is it to walk to the grocery store?

We returned from a trip late on Saturday and early on Sunday I shopped at the Publix (map location) grocery store shown in this photo. It is interesting how dependent one becomes on a grocery store. Especially if you want milk with your oatmeal and hot chocolate … I like this photo because of how the lamppost leads the viewer’s eyes to the background where the Poinsett Hotel can be seen.
