Grocery shopping

...I have discovered that groceries are not too cheap in New York.

But the good thing is...there is a 24 hour supermarket around the corner from my place....and they offer delivery (in the form of pushing your shopping trolley for you back to your place) for $1! Delivery ends at 9 pm though...so I barely make it as I do a quick run through of essentials for the apartment.

I get some oil, salt, pepper and marinades..including a bit of meat. Tea, sugar, juice, milk. That sort of thing. Fruits are pricey and so are fresh vegetables. Probably something I'll miss about Australia :(

But anyway, I'm all set to cook up my first meal!

Actually, despite not eating all day....I've kinda lost my appetite...so I pan fry half my salmon steak (yum) and sit in front of the PC watching Gossip Girl (season 1...yes I'm a bit behind with these things).

Hm....what to do on day 2.....?
