Well at the moment for me, it's a cup of Waitrose chai latte and a cinnamon man biscuit (like a gingerbread man, but....not). Pure, unadulterated bliss. I am grinning like the proverbial Cheshire Cat.
Oh, word of warning though. Don't go to Waitrose. Ever. You will never be able to buy all you want in that shop. I had to grit my teeth and NOT succumb to the sinful delights offered on either side, like fresh fruit in a sauce of muscovado sugar and vanilla, a delicatessen range I would give my first born child for (in the highly unlikely event I ever have one), a range of teas to make your eyes stand on stalks....I could go on, but I don't want to go through it again or make any of my flist who know Waitrose weep.
I was pretty good, I got what was on my list, which was mostly fresh veggies and fruit, and I only succumbed three, well ok, four times to temptation. I don't count the chai latte because I had seen that on the website and so I count that under 'essentials' and it
was on my list *cough*
My sinful delights were:
Strawberries - I know, in March, food miles and all that, but they called to me, right off the shelf and into my trolley. I was most surprised to see them there I tell you.
Cheese fondue - Because I adore it and it was there and *hangs head* Yeah.
The Aforementioned Cinnamon men biscuits, 12 thereof - Although they are mini ones, so I don't feel so bad.
A piece of Apple Loaf and three pieces of assabee, which is a bit like baklava only a bit nuttier - Alright so I know that's two things, but they were put in the same box so they only count as one ;) Ahem.
I had fun too, the lady I asked when I had gone up and down the likely aisles 4 times looking for polenta was smiley and helpful, as was the young guy on the patisserie counter and the other young guy and girl who helped me check my
contraband
shopping out.
What? I am easy to make happy and Grocery shopping in Waitrose makes me happy. Now if only I could have carried it out to a shiny new Aston Martin DBS waiting for me in the car park the experience would have been complete. Hee.
