We discovered a new fruit!


Saturday, December 15th, 2012 – Sunday, December 16th, 2012

This weekend was all about Settling Aimee into her apartment and picking up a few things of my own along the way.  We went to various stores and markets around her apartment and my apartment to collect the items she needed.  First we went to a dollar store chain that has almost all of the household supplies one desires!  It is called Daiso and she was able to buy her all of her dishes, hangers, a pan, and other necessary household items.  Next we tackled her neighbourhood and found her food at a couple of markets near her house. The next day we went to a larger grocery store near my apartment and that is where she got her drying rack, towel, pot, more food, etc.  We also went to Nampo that night so she could buy a few more things at another Daiso location and see the Christmas lights! 

One of the items she bought, she thought she was purchasing tomatoes.  It turned out to be a sweet fruit and seemed to us to have the texture of an apple, the flavour of an orange and apple mixed together and the look of a tomato.  We still have not discovered what the mysterious fruit is called.



We found it they are alled Permissions

It was a busy weekend running around trying to get everything but we accomplished our goals and now Aimee has everything she needs so she can settle into her new home!
