The First Grocery

On our second day at our new home we headed to the supermarket late in the afternoon to get some basic food stuff which consisted of the following:

a dozen eggs
canned goods - Maling, pork & beans, sausage, and sardines
vinegar, soy sauce, Maggi savor
salt and pepper
cheese, peanut butter, butter
some veggies - calamansi, tomato, carrots, onions, garlic and cucumber
brown sugar
coffee and juice
a loaf of bread
hotdog and cold cuts
additional cleaning aids and toiletries

We already brought in rice, rock salt and white sugar when our landlady turned over the keys. Tradition dictates that the first things to bring inside one's new home are: a statue or image of Jesus, a jar of rock salt, a jar of white sugar and water.
