GROCERY STORE

Going shopping with Jana has been amazing! I keep comparing life today in Indonesia, to
life 40 years ago, when we were raising our family in the village here.
Progress has been made!
The times have changed! No longer is there the muddy, dirty open market
with hunks of meat hanging on hooks and baskets of local vegetables where I shopped.
Take a look at the local super market where Jana and many of the locals shop.

How wonderfrul to have beautifully cut and packaged meats ready for you!
I miss all these fresh tropical fruits!

And lots of wonderful vegetables.

People here love their food spicy, so there are plenty of hot peppers available.

And wonderful, unique things useful in the kitchens that
we don't usually find in our own supermarkets.

Useful baskets used in various ways.

And the colorful buckets found in all sizes and for all purposes.
Grocery shopping in Indonesia has vastly improved!
