Miserable Saturday! - Raining cats, dogs and ducks!
Can't do a thing outside and the strawberry-bed needs to be dug-up and prepped with duck-gold as thestrawberry plants need to be planted asap. Just 1½ month before the first frost!!!
So i went to buy some groceries.
Do they still teach a thing called »math« at schools here?
I believe that has been discontinued:
Went to »Shave Somewhat« and bought, among other things, three ½ gallon bottles of milk; we don't buy the 1 gallon bottles because usually the last ¼ of those goes bad here. Anyways, i placed all three bottles into one plastic bags and placed that bag into a second bag when…
»Sir! Please don't double bag!«
»I beg your pardon?«
»Please don't double bag! These bags are bad for the environment, they kill fish and wildlife and end up in the pacific garbage patch. Please use only single bags.«
»Uum, i have three bottles of milk in two bags, if i take a single bag for each bottle i would need three bags. I save one bag this way.«
»No Sir! We have a strict policy here at »Shave Somewhat«, only single bags are allowed.«
»Okay, i use three bags then.«
Stuffed all three milk bottles in one bag each, which earned me a nod of approval and the statement »See, we all can make a difference.«
