Yesterday began as a lazy Sunday. I got up really very late.
Though I had waken up somewhat earlier but kept on lying on the bed thinking that it was 8, but when I wore my spectacles and looked at the clock. Oooooops! It was 11.
So the morning was already gone. It was time to begin the afternoon.
Actually I was at my mom’s home today. There were no usual chores for the day. Though I had certain things to do for online activities yet I was not feeling like doing them. (Lack of focus, may be). I finally decided to go for the shopping to make the day productive in one way if not the other. 😆
There is a super store nearby. With my younger son I went there.
Certain things were on my list which I had seen in the store once.
I wanted to buy a foldable writing table, ceramic or marble plates and painting brushes. Unfortunately, none of these things were present there this time.
Though a couple of designs were available for ceramic plates yet none of them was appealing to me.
I didn’t find the plates of my choice but I found glass bowls I was looking for.
I prefer plain glass over the designed ones because it is easier to clean and dirt doesn’t sticks in the cuts and corners.
I bought three pieces. Each piece cost me Rs.175. It is a reasonable price for the product.
I was disappointed to see that the writing table was not available. What could I do for this. ....
I moved to another section. The fragrant one....
It has been quite hot here. Sweating and then bad smell is the issue I am facing these days.
A fragrant talcum powder is the solution that came to me mind. It helps relieving from sweat for some time. Also, prevents the rashes that are caused by sweating.
This bottle of 250g of powder cost me Rs.315.
I also bought two bottles of deodorants. I think deodorant are more lasting than the body spray.
There were many fragrances available. It took me some time to select the ones for me.
With fragrances and body there is a chemistry. A fragrance may appear exceptional in the bottle but doesn’t feel the same way on your body. The vice versa is also the case.
The testing was not allowed there. I couldn’t apply the deodorant on my body to check how it turned. My son helped me short listing the fragrances.
I was in a fix between the two. It was my gut feeling that one of them would go with my body more while the other one was more appealing in the bottle.
At the end, I put both of them in my basket. Hehe.
Each bottle has 50 ml of the liquid. One of them was for Rs.315, the other for Rs.325 😊.
We also bought a thermos and a lunch box. One of my sons had broken his water bottle, the other one had a broken lunch box. So one thing for each.
After paying the bill at the cash counter, my son found a rack for cake pans. He insisted to buy this heart-shaped pan. I bought it too 😀.
There is another small mart nearby. I asked my son if he could walk there. He agreed.
On that mart also, I couldn’t find the things like table or plates. However, we found the painting brushes.
I took one set of 6 flat brushes and another set of 6 round brushes.
My son took an ice-cream for him. We also bough some bars of chocolates.
Oh! Where are they? They are in the tummy. Hehe. As soon as I had reached home, my nephew asked me if I had brought the chocolates for him 🥰.
After that mart, I wanted to go a little further towards the stationery shops but my son had got tired. He wanted go back to home.
This way our shopping trip ended......

It's good to have such a restful and lazy time once and a while. Your market adventure with your son sounds fun :) And perfectly ended with munching on some chocolate bars.😍
Hehe. I liked being with him. He takes part in the shopping actively. Gives me advice and helps lifting the products
That is great :) Sounds like he knows how to shop 😍
Or perhaps he knows how to be supportive to the mom.
Thanks for coming atound !LUV

Thanks to you too.
Have a wonderful weekend 😃
You're welcome.
Sometimes, we just need to lazy around and catch some rest amidst our busy lives. Even though you couldn't get the foldable table, your market shopping makes a lot of sense to me..nice items there. I love the Talcum powder.. hopefully you will get the foldable table soon
Yeah,you are right. Sometimes, it is good to go without doing the duties. Lols.
Thanks for stopping by
OMG!! I forgot when for the last time I slept till 11. It's too late..
Same situation here also but it's good thing that in last 2 days rain started to pour..
You bought good amount of things from market.
!PIZZA
11 is more than just late. I also don't like being on bed that long.
I was at my mom and I had nothing to do. Perhaps, that's why I didn't try to get up.
Rain is a blessing to have.

Eleven O'clock! When I read that, I was wondering where the kids were! :) There are days that the body needs to have a day of rest. When you rest in, it gives you the energy to keep going.
It sounds like your day of shopping was a partial success, although I would call it a win with some of the things you got. I agree with the bowls. Mine have patterns, but, a glaze over it all so that it is easy to clean. I don't like the little corners where batter and flour get stuck. The foldable table will be a little harder, although I bought on online as I needed it for one of my kids when she was visiting somewhere. It wasn't an expensive one, but, it fit the bill and she used it for its purpose for a while. She still has it.
Here is one on Amazon I found for a very good price.
I like to keep it as natural as I can with my body and have found (for me) that perfumed fragrances can go so wrong with perspiration. Long ago, I switched over to Himalayan salt instead of scented deodorants and they seem to work really well. I lived in extreme heat at the time.
Did you want marble plates? For eating meals? I am glad to see you got your paintbrushes and I love the heart baking pan. Are you baking much nowadays? I hope all is well with you and your family. Thanks for taking us along with you on your market excursion~ I like your little helper!
#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.
Thank you for being a part of #MarketFriday
