Broom but no dustpan. Could also use mop and pail. Repair to handy little supermarket. Has pretty well everything and, somewhat like Sioux Lookout, no need to waste hours in comparison shopping. Reminded of when I first moved to SL and my watch strap broke. Two of the right size in the Northern. Bought the one that was not pink and thought one could save a lot of time in this town. Here, interestingly, the default assumption seems to be that one would normally wish to buy mop handle and mopping bit separately, as it’s unlikely they would wear out/break at the same time. Very practical and comfortingly uncapitalist. No need to sell people what they don’t yet require.
Discover that we have an orange tree, actually growing in the nether reaches of our extensive wrap around deck. Better than that, there are currently oranges on it and they’re surprisingly sweet. Not an endless supply, but they’re everywhere at this time of year, including at our little supermarket.
