Most people may dread grocery shopping, but when you go with Nonna it is always a blast. Nonnas always seem to have a plan of attack when stepping foot into a grocery store and have multiple stops along the way. It always amazes me how my Nonna, in particular, does not get as tired as she when going grocery shopping.
Normally, Nonna goes to Shaws then Stopping then Russos (a local grocery store). During this process, she also finds time to return soda bottles and sometimes make a stop at Family Dollar. Nonna clearly has this down to an art.
When Nonna goes grocery shopping, it seems like she is preparing for the end of the world sometimes. It seems like she is always buying food to add to the stock pile she has. For the grandkids, this is not a problem at all because we get food out of the deal!
I like inside family stuff. I went grocery shopping with my 97-year-old mother-in-law a couple of weeks ago and it was just like this.
