So, from 10 a.m., there we were in Food Basics, activity sheets and grocery flyers in hand, scribbling down aisle numbers, prices, brand names, etc. The number of the faithful included:
Aidin
Ehsan
Fiona
Frank
John
Munira
Philly
Terry
Yuanyuan
(Thanks, Frank, for the picture!)
At Johnny's Hamburgers, in addition to terms on the handout, we learnt what a kaiser bun, souvlaki, veal, root beer, Sprite, and pickles are. Everyone had something to eat. Someone suggested checking out the sale at Tone Tai at Peanut Plaza rather than Hong Tai around the corner. The decision was unanimous.
At Tone Tai, few instructions were needed on arrival other than to meet back at the oranges. For some, it was quite a steal on aloe vera juice ($.99 a 2-litre bottle) and soybean milk ($.38 for litres). For others, seeing all kinds of jellyfish--fresh, shredded, prepacked--was an eyeopener. When it was time to go, we wished each other a Happy Chinese New Year!
