Sunday Errands

I had to do some grocery shopping today. It's a good thing I already went for a run this morning, if not, I would have been too tired to workout later.

Got me some green mango from Berkeley Bowl, yep, it's green mango, the crunchy kind. The kind you can slice through the white, bitter seed. I dipped it in shrimp paste my mom brought when she came from PI. Hmmmmm, yummy. Reason I love Berkeley Bowl. They have almost everything Asian. They have squash flowers (sabong ti karabasa), although quite expensive. I think it was $.75 per stem. Eeeeek. They also have those rounded eggplants for pinakbet, they even have "bulaklak ng Ipil-ipil!!!!!!!!!!!!" What the hell!!!! LOL

Hmmmm, what else do they have? I think I'm forgetting something. Oh, I also bought a pound of guavas for $2.95 and I was gonna buy a Starfruit but man, it was way beyond my budget. I think it's called Balimbing in Tagalog and Granatis in Ilocano. It was gonna cost $4.95 for one fruit. Hell no!

It's a good Sunday so far. Got two movies - Taxi and Closer. I'm gonna watch Taxi first for some mindless entertainment. I've had enough of the indie films for now so why not watch this one, right?

Ok, I better start watching my movie. That should give me enough time to watch Closer too.
