Grocery Shopping with Mum
Canmore AB

Today’s laughable moment.

Tomorrow we are making French Toast before I shoot a wedding (with an amazing couple and I am kind of giddy thinking about it) so naturally a grocery run was necessary. Eggs, butter, bread etc. were easy enough to find but the maple syrup was being elusive. The following is an honest narrative.

[Mum and Brittany strolling with arms full of French Toast making goodness in arms near the back of Sobeys. The lights are dim-ish, there are a couple stray shoppers dressed in sweatpants and baggy t-shirts browsing the microwavable meals nearby. A Sobeys’ employee stocks the personal hygiene section. Mum and Brittany are slightly vexed at the lack of the national sweetening agent findability]

Mum: Maybe we should just ask someone.

Brittany: Nah. We must hone our natural hunting and gathering skills. Instinct tells me the baking aisle. (Tally-ho)

Sobeys’ employee: [Scoffs]

Brittany: [Drives forward obliviously. Continues forward before realizing no one is following and turns around]

Sobeys’ employee and Mum: [Disappear down an aisle forever away]

Sobeys’ employee: [Emerges from aisle seconds later and is returning to stocking personal hygiene aisle]

Brittany: Touche!

Sobeys’ employee: [Scoffs]
