The Shopping Cart

Our local Whole Foods has two mini carts available for mini shoppers. Unfortunately, every time we are there both carts are always taken and so Norah spends the majority of the trip stalking the kids who were lucky enough to get them. Last weekend, we made a family grocery trip first thing in the morning and low and behold, Norah got a cart. Please notice the fashionable ensemble she picked out for herself that day. She is wearing her 'football watching shirt' and her 'Jessie pants.' I am not exactly sure why they are called Jessie pants. They are flared at the bottom kind of like chaps, I guess. She loves them and I am doing laundry constantly to make sure she has them available.

She was a master at maneuvering around displays, produce bins, and other people. And she went FAST. It was an excellent work out for her and even more so for those of us trying to catch her.

When we unloaded the groceries at home we realized there were a handful of unapproved things that had made it into the bags, including but not limited to: a mini watermelon, 2 boxes of cereal, sunflower seed butter, 3 shallots, and a single tangerine. Which is funny because I now look at these pictures that BVZ took and the watermelon is prominently displayed.

That would be a big fail on your part, BVZ.

do you think you have a better chance at getting her to eat it if she picks it out?

I give you a pass on everything but the watermelon. Mini or not a watermelon is quite noticeable and not able to hide under anything else much like a candy bar can hide under tortillas.

Trader Joe's has those mini carts. So does Petco. Love them.
