And then I rubbed oil all over my belly.

Special oil.

In the absence of anything interesting to write about, I thought I'd post both a list of what I bought at Whole Foods last evening, and a list of what I plan to buy at Trader Joe's and Ralphs today.

Whole Foods

• food-based Prenatals
  
• Expecting Mother oil
  
• green split-peas (I prefer yellow but they don't carry them)
  
• tofu, extra firm
  
• unfiltered apple juice
  
• chicken stock
  
• aged cheddar cheese
  
• stew beef
  
• potatoes
  
• broccoli
  
• cauliflower
  
• carrots
  
• mustard greens
  
• kale
  
• tomatoes
  
• brussel sprouts
  
• Annie's salad dressings, Sesame-Ginger and Goddess
  
• mixed baby greens

Trader Joe's

• Sicilian wine
  
• fresh-baked bread
  
• sweet cream butter
  
• more potatoes
  
• onions
  
• limes?
  
• flour
  
• salt
  
• olives
  
• whole wheat pasta
  
• peppermint tea

Ralphs

• mushrooms (would have bought at Whole Foods if I'd realized)
  
• Italian bread
  
• provolone, American, Swiss
  
• kilbasa
  
• orange juice

And we also need pepperoni, but the really good stuff, so I will probably have to go to the butcher.
