In the kitchen
Good evening! :wave3:

What is the last item you bought, either online or at the store?

The last item we bought was cheese. Rick ran down the road to the cheesemaker for a wheel of baby Swiss this afternoon. They're never busy there. Basically, they produce the cheese there and they have a small fridge inside the foyer. You walk in, get what you want and pay the woman at the window. And he had a mask, so it was OK. There was nobody else there at all.

I bought a black metal cat-shaped silhouette that has a colorful solar lit panel in it, from Greater Good's Animal Rescue Site store, which additionally provided something like 75 meals to a shelter.

I ordered scented sachets online. I like to put them in my dresser and closets. I went with pumpkin spice this time.

I bought a replacement brace for my drop foot. It cost $18 instead of $64, and I'm thrilled with it.

Nobody realizes it, but you raise your toes and the front of your foot when you walk. The nerve from my spine down was injured, and on the left foot, it doesn't rise like it should. So if I'm not watching, I smack the floor with the top of my foot. The brace keeps it raised.

I got a quart of hot and sour soup and a large Sichuan chicken at the Chinese restaurant which is now take-out only.

If we're not counting restaurants, the last thing I put in my cart at Lidl's was some cranberry-grape juice. A little bit of that in sparkling water is great!

I did a big grocery trip this evening, and I'm not sure what the last thing they technically scanned was! Maybe some ribeye steak?

Where my cats are
I went to a neat little grocery store today. They have bulk items (flours, pastas, candy, dried fruits, spices, etc), a nice deli counter where I can buy even fresh meat, an awesome cheese selection, fresh produce and then discount groceries that take up a lot of the store.

I don’t know what was last there; I got quite a few things but I was busy supervising my kids bagging the groceries. The store has a 2nd conveyor belt for someone to bag but no one was there. DS was fascinated with it so the cashier (a grandma like lady) turned it on and let them bag anything that wouldn’t break or get damaged. It made the kid’s day! We were both highly amused! 😂

I bought a handheld shower head on Amazon. The one that came with the apartment had very little water pressure. This one has a good hard pressure, a button on the side of the shower head to change from regular spray to masssaging spray to both together. The best feature is a filter that softens the water and gets rid of chlorine and flouride. I enjoy my showers so much more now.

Dress pants for my husband
Update... since folding some laundry and realizing that my oldest needs socks really bad and husband and youngest need underwear, I did some online shopping at Kohl's and got 15% off my order to boot. :cheerleader:

A 4 pack of Peony scented Dove body wash from Amazon. I love the smell of peonies and it is real hit or miss if that one is in the store. I now have 4 bottles of it so I have enough to last for a long time.

Groceries at the supermarket today. Online.... I think it was chair cushions and light bulbs from Target.

On Friday we had to deliver documents to the local hospital because the surgery, where my daughter is a doctor's nurse and I help out with computer stuff, is responsible for emergency services this weekend.
We parked at the hospital and walked to a bakery on the corner. We purchased a baked-apple cake. Mmm........ That's the last thing I bought. And there's still enough for tea and cake this afternoon! 😋
