First solo shopping trip

I promised that I’ll write about it. Here it is. The scenario was like this.

--------------------------------

Date: 16 May 2008

Location: Tesco Extra

Total Duration: 20 minutes

Memories: Lifetime!

Mummy was pushing the shopping cart with Sarah standing inside, and going along some very narrow path. As Mummy was pushing Sarah was very trying to grab whatever she could from inside of the promotion bin.

Mummy: Sarah please sit still.
Mummy: No no Sarah don’t take that. Put it back.
(Sarah wasn’t too happy with her “toy” being confiscated so she changed strategy)

Sarah: Pau pau, er. Pau pau. PAU PAUUUUU..
Mummy: Sarah, Mummy cannot carry you. How is mummy supposed to carry you and push the cart at the same time? Stay inside.
(Sarah’s not about to give up that easily)
Sarah: PAU PAU… (pura pura cry) Pau err…. (with one leg hanging threatenly over the cart)

(getting frustrated Mummy grabs a clothes hanger and hand it over to Sarah)

Mummy: You see, hanger. Nah, give you.
Sarah: (smiled. that seemed to do the trick)

(Meanwhile Mummy saw some cheap and cute toddler swimming suit and is indecisive which to buy. The one she likes seems a bit small but those of bigger sizes looks really yucky. So how to choose leh?)

Sarah on the other hand was getting bored with the hanger and looking for interesting things somewhere else.

Sarah: Baa

Mummy: (ignoring)

Sarah: Baa
Mummy: What?
Sarah: Baa (pointing to the next promotion bin with displaying ladies bra)
Mummy: Oh. Yes, err.. bra.
Sarah: Baa, baa, baa…
(mummy back to her shopping..still thinking which one to buy)
Sarah: Baa. Baa. Beat baa, beat baa
Mummy: Huh? What? (turning to look at Sarah)
(Sarah bend down to take the hanger and start swatting with full force)
Sarah: BEAT BAAAA! BEAT BAAAAA!

Mummy: NO! NO! Sarah. Don’t beat the BRAAA!

(Mummy quickly took the hanger away from Sarah. Mummy was sure that everyone was looking.)

SHIT.. shy already.

(But of course Mummy's going to stay calm and remain her composure. Suddenly deciding on which swimming suit to buy was so easy. So next was just turn around, put the swimming suit in, look straight, push the cart and don’t look back!)

You get the idea.
