Shopping responsibly

Nearly 6 am. When I get up early I wear out after a while and go back to bed for a nap before getting up. I have to buy fresh fruit and vegetables this morning.

I normally shop for food using a bicycle. I shifted my shopping habits after getting a bicycle, from one big expedition per week using the car, visiting a market and a supermarket, to shopping one shopping bag at a time in a basket on the back of the bike.

This is easy for the supermarket. I can walk to mine.

It is harder for fresh fruit and vegetables. There are three places I can reach by bike. Each has shortcomings, but I still do most of the shopping there.

I take the car to a larger market when I have other things to do close by. Two groups of friends are there. Going by bus is not an option.

I make the least possible use of the car and almost sold it a couple of weeks ago. More on that later...
