I stopped at Fairway Market at Gorge-Tillicum, to look for green mangoes, persimmons & longan fruits. I was able to find the latter 2 but they had no green mangoes in stock. I'll have to try their Quadra Village location & Chinatown. Fairway Market stocks a lot of Asian foods & is local to Vancouver Island.

I got the persimmons & longan for ceremonial offerings.
I want green mangoes to make a few jars of green mango pickles.

List your top 5 grocery store items. Coffee still rules the list like an exhausted dictator who refuses to step down. It’s not optional, not aesthetic, and definitely not a personality trait. It’s the thing that hauls me out of goblin mode and gets

☕️Lower-quality beans, darker roasts, #instantcoffee, and capsules often make up the majority of the #grocerystore #coffee offerings.
☕️The #supermarket #coffee aisle is changing. More whole bean specialty coffees are appearing on shelves, and Gen Z’s demand for diverse offerings is giving way to RTDs, #espresso concentrates, and #matcha products.
☕️Selling directly to #grocerystores can benefit #specialtycoffee roasters by reaching a much broader audience https://perfectdailygrind.com/2025/12/supermarket-coffee-quality-challenges/

Supermarket coffee could be better – but it's a challenging market

With shifting consumer preferences and Gen Z’s demand for customised drinks, supermarket coffee aisles are evolving.

Hands cracked and bleeding from weather and work. Definitely not up to any fingerpicking at the moment.

I've been punching out late for the past week or two. Interestingly, management hasn't said anything yet. Probably waiting until I've worked through the holiday season lest I react drastically at their inconvenience.

Just left work 45 minutes late and this is the indirect reason. Someone made a bale without putting it on a pallet and it took me almost a half hour to figure out how to manipulate it onto a pallet with the power jack. A half hour delay of my duties of ordering and blocking shelves.

I would love for management to make some of these day people take turns working a shift or two with my night crew so they'll understand the butterfly effect of their slacking.
