A "Sch-MOR-gasborg" of #FFF and #Market Friday

As I turned into the Kroger parking lot on this Rainy morning, I
Saw a sign for a business in the same shopping center, I had
Not noticed before.

Pita Mediterranean Street Food.

So I wondered,
"What exactly would Mediterranean street food" Look like?
                   And the adventure began.




Since I had eaten quite a substantial, homecooked breakfast,
I wasn't really that hungry, so I decided to opt for the Greek
French Fries.(Is that a classic oxymoron or what?)

Seasoned Fried Potatoes with Feta cheese sprinkled over top.
There was supposed to be some Tahini in there as well,
The above would be for @dandays and #FFF
But I couldn't tell. So on to Kroger again

Wasn't looking, but spotted what turned out to be some VERY yummy
Balsamic Vinegar

I went for some grinders with Black Pepper and Sea Salt. Found them.
There were a LOT of choices.

Who knew there were this many choices for Olive Oil.
Popeye would be ecstatic 😜

Then there were the multitudinous choices of Vinegar.

a side note (Bb)

Twice in recent weeks, I've left the house, knowing I needed
Gasoline, being in quite hurry the first time (new client, almost
90 minutes away) I left out without my wallet.
No wallet, means no cash nor plastic.
so I decided I would get a prepaid debit card to just leave in
My car, for just such emergencies. I asked my bank (Wells Fargo)
About this, and yes, they DO offer prepaid debit cards, but there
Would be a $5 per month charge.
That is utter nonsense to me. Then I remembered that Kroger has a
PLETHORA of gift cards, that when bought and/or used, give you
FOUR TIMES the gas points.
So I looked at Kroger.

One section, more for movie or entertainment usages.

Another section where you can buy cards to use at certain businesses

And yet another section. I was flummoxed, which one should I buy?
This was after all, just for my use. I asked some help.
I settled on buying three, $15 debit cards.
Still don't know exactly how this will translate at the pump.

The "Schmorgasborg" ^{I know it is misspelled, on purpose}

I first went to The "GoodWill Store" across the street. Since discovering the
Salvation Army store, I've not been to GoodWill for much of anything.
I first spotted this, because I didn't know what it was supposed to be,
But I could tell whatever it was, was upside down.

I bought this copper clad fry pan, like I need another piece of cookware


That will clean up better when I have time to do something
When checking out with the Fry pan, I asked about the pin.
Both me and the sales person thought the shape suggested
A Guitar.
So I asked the lady to turn it over for me. It was on the
BOTTOM shelf, nearest ME (the front of the cabinet) Making it
Very far for her to reach.

Even though it was absolutely of no use nor particular value
To me, yet she had gone to the trouble for me, I bought it.

I did a quick "Antique stores near me" this was just across the street

I went in, turns out this is a storefront maintained so that various
VENDORS can have "booths" to set up, display and sell their personal
Inventory. If the person who has something for sale is not present, the
Person who IS present has authority to do a limited amount of
Haggling for the actual sale price.

Most everything was marked at prices that I felt, considering I have
Some experience with Antiques, prices were overblown.
I did end up buying this drop leaf occasional table. I need somewhere to
Sit and eat should I ever have guests.
|
One of the brass "Shoes" for the feel of the legs, was located in the
One lone drawer, but the other is just gone.
I don't think it is particularly valuable as an antique, but one never
Really knows.
I also bought a LARGE piece of artwork ( Need something to go on
The wall over and behind my sofa.) No photos of that.
Yet
As I was leaving, the girl who had been walking me all along, and
Just after I had showed her one of my videos from playing ♫♪music♫♪
For Old folks, said "Hang on, I have something I want to give you"
She when and found a Santa Suit. White Wig, Red Hat, White beard,
Red shirt with the Shit faux fur down the front, black vinyl belt,
Red flannel Pants, and black over shoe covers.

This was in the car, as I was leaving. I wore the beard, wig and hat
As I drove home.

And thus ends my #marketfriday for Denise @dswigle, and #fff for
@dandays and company.
