Shopping in Rustenburg

Today I was finally able to do a little shopping in town to get groceries and a few other items I needed. Shannon, a young woman who volunteers at Lighthouse on Tuesdays and Thursdays, was working with me in the baby room this morning and offered to take me to the grocery store. I guess she was planning on going this morning anyway.

So we drove to Woolworth's, which looks like an American department store, but has a small grocery store inside towards the back. I picked up lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, milk, cereal, and lots of easy to make dinners like pasta. I also bought a couple microwave dinners just in case. :)

Later in the afternoon, Lorinda, who lives and works at Lighthouse, took me with her to the drugstore. I had brought travel size bottles of shampoo, conditioner, etc. to save space in my suitcase, so I bought the full size bottles today here in Rustenburg.

We also stopped in a little bakery to sample samosas since Lorinda discovered I had never tried them and was sure that my life would not be complete until I had sampled one. They were delicious!
