Hunting for Groceries
There is a saying that concludes one should not shop for
food while hungry because one's attention is easily distracted.
One could argue that shoppes
(see also grocery
store), markets
and stores
prey on this frailty.
I enjoy hunting for groceries because the hunter is being
hunted; the preyer is the prey. There are plenty of traps
set to make the experience quite sporting--whetting the
appetite.
There is much to bark about. Release the hounds!!!
Success. Failure. Missed opportunity.
Back at the homestead, the hunter shares his spoils.
