my first completely vegetarian shopping trip

sunday, i had my first shopping trip where i did not buy any kind of meat product. and i thought it was fairly successful.

here are two insights i have since had:

1. i don't know how to buy avocados. i have no idea when they are ripe or overripe. the last time i bought one, it was good. but very quickly turned brown after the first use. so i knew to use it all as soon as possible. but the one i bought on sunday, when i cut into it was already completely brown on the inside. uck.

2. i should have tried babaganoush some time in my life before i decided to buy it. uck.
