I have come to realise that it is alarmingly easy to get stuck in a grocery rut. There are things, such as soya milk and silken tofu, that I order every week from RedMart. Red dragon fruit, which go into smoothies I make with the soya stuff, I get from random fruit stalls I come upon when out and about. Fish collars and buri fillets from Meidi-Ya when they are a good price. Grocery shopping is, you know, routine.

And dreadfully boring.
