A fast tour to....

the supermarket.... wait make that the mexican supermarket!

I´ve been a little lost because the holidays bring extra stuff to do and well cyber life has to suffer because of it, but on my latest trip to the supermarket I thought "I bet everybody wants to know what our supermarket looks like" ok make that everybody that doesn´t live in Mexico. So I said is the holidays they need to check one out; and with this I give you, my favorite supermarket in the world: La Comer

So La Comer isn´t the real name is just the short version of Comercial Mexicana, and the reason is my favorite supermarket is that the fruit, vegetables, breads and everything else they sell is super fresh, yummy and looks awesome and also you can buy on the internet and 2 hours later you get your shopping right in your doorstep (doesn´t get better than that!)

The bakery section assorted yummy cakes and pies that I should try soon.

Very cute stuffed animals in the way of the aisle with snacks.

The pet food aisle, we have Dog Chow and Whiskas and Pedigree, how exciting right!?

The bread section (one of my favorites by the way!)

Apples, pears and other fruity goodness.

My shopping cart with stuff to make oreo balls, coconut macaroons, sugar cookies and fudge (there will be a post about the candy makin).

Self portrait of the shopping/candy making/girl (in other words me).

Wouldn´t that pink suitcase be great to take to crops and stuff? I so love it!

Here in Mexico we have the tradition that in New Years eve you have to wear red panties to find love or yellow to have money, so here is a very nice selection of red undies to pick.

My very personal opinion is that is luckier for me to not wear any at all... just kidding!

Hope you enjoyed the little tour to La Comer and please stay tunned for the "Please may all my cookies and candies be tasty" post to come in a couple of days, until then drink tons of egg nog, hot cocoa and stay warm.

I love your tour of the supermarket and I love that you can buy panties there too. We don't have that here, unless you are counting the Super Walmart.
