Shopping and other incidences Date: September 12, 2005 Characters: Millicent Bulstrode, Open Location: Market off of Diagon Alley Private/Public: Public Rating: PG Warnings: N/A Summary: Just Grocery shopping
Normally Millie did her shopping in Hogsmead, it was easy and convenient. Today however she wanted something that wasn't in the regular shops. In the back of her mind she had a taste for some fresh snapper with a tomato salsa. The last time she had, had it was in Spain on holiday but today it was just what she was craving. Since she was already on a mission, Millie figured she might as well just do all her shopping in Diagon. It was part of her therapy to do the shopping to make sure that she didn't forget the presence and need for food in her life. She was encouraged to go with her cravings and to be healthy about it
Grabbing a basket, Millie first picked out produce; tomatoes and onions. Green peppers followed and some cilantro. The herb was hard to get in Hogsmead but luckily Diagon had more demanding pallets. While she was here, bread was procured along with butter and milk. She was pondering the oranges when her hand slipped causing the large pile to start collapsing. With a yelp she was scrambling to catch them before anyone noticed. Merlin, can't I have an ordinary day?
