Supermarket Shopper

Time to write!

Day 5 & 6 had entries that went together so I'm posting them in the same day, which day is this day. Now. 

Prompts: Pick a letter of the alphabet. List everything that would be found in two aisles of the supermarket starting with that letter. 
Now write about someone who would buy all the items listed in the day 5 prompt


Can I just be honest with you? I hate this prompt. I really do. Yesterday I hated it as well and so I decided to just write a blog post on my real person blog instead. Because I wrote I'm not going to count it as cheating. So I'm just going to write about a person in a store. Cause I don't want to list stupid things that start with 'B' or any other letter.

Anxious and ansty, Bronson Bruckwilder pushed his cart through Dunford Deli. Bronson knew that he was supposed to have brought the list his wife had made, and he knew that she was going to be irritated when he got home, even if by some miracle he managed to bring back the correct items from her rather extensive grocery list, because she would inevitably see it still sitting on the brown marble countertop, meaning he had forgotten it again. Bronson hated disappointing Elaina. A part of him wanted to drive home and get the list, but the store was twenty minutes from their flat, and he had a late class that night. Driving an extra forty minutes was just out of the question.

And so he walked through the aisles. He wished the breads, cheeses, meats, drinks, produce and whatever else he was supposed to have remembered would just come to life and jump into the cart, knowing that they were on Elaina's list.

But that wish was silly. Food with the ability to move would not be appetizing, and would probably be pretty hard to eat anyway.
