Have you eversent yourhubby to do the
grocerjrtthopping? Do yougive Mina list?
Have you ever taken 'hubby along grocery
shopping? Did you spend morethan usual?
If you 'answered "yes" to all of the
above, you prcibahly cknow where this ca-
ll= is headed.
Now:before-at you male readersgo get-
ting :on your high horse - wait - 1 'don't
judge all of you by my own personal ex-
periences or those -related to me by
friends. However, from what I hearalot of
you are just like Mr. 'Fixit, when it comes
togroce.ry shopping.
Mr. Fixit DOES NOT enjoy shopping -
any kind of slapping, :but occasionally 1
coherce himinto :coining along to get the
groceries. After all, every man should
imderstand the lay out of -a „grocery store
.and it also impresses upon them that it
really does 'cost a lot to feed family
These %excursions tend to stop them from
asking, "how can you 'have 450 worth of
groceries in...those two little 'bags'?"
Mr. Fixit usually pushes the :cart when
hedeignstoaccompanyine cm oneof these
teaching -sessions.
'Taking Mr. Fixit into .agrocery store to
do aweek 's shopping could be 'compared to
taking _a toddler into E candy store. He
goes crazy!
As I walk ahead with my list in -hand, he
usually trails 10 feet behind, 'flaking it
.aostunpossibire-f-Orme—teep a sharp 3eye
on the quick move of his -hands as he
shoves and hides little treats in the cart.
We make it past the vegetable display
with ho problem. It is the frozen food sec-
tion, candy aisle, cold meat counter and
.bakery section .that is his downfall. 'Those
Amouties

tempting TV dinners, ice c ream, Salami,
donuts and Chocolates seem to jump into
the cart as he strolls by.
As fast 1 put themback, those expensive
little "treats"' appear again. "But
this looks. really good," is repeated
numerous times.
By the time we get to the c °miter, the
basket is over flowing anti Lam holdingmy
breath in dreaded anticipation of the final
tally.
Mr. Fixit of come has disappeared;
playing the gentleman's roll, he has gone
tabring the car up to thedoor. In fact, be is
playing itsafe. He prefers to be scolded in
private.
On the drive home, -ranting and raving
on my part brings the :comnunerit, "1 told
youl didn't want to go, but you insisted."
Do you think there is a method -to "his
madness? •
Needless to say, I do not insistMr. Fixit
accompany me on a regular basis. It is
easier and less expensive to do it -myself
and let 'him put the groceries -away. One
lesson he still must learn is that frozen
meat pies go in the freezer, NOT IN THE
CUPBOARD - theytend to.grow tarry little
things if not stored according to instruc-
tions and the odourthatemantes after four
aysis-netthemostTappealing. -In-fact, it
could turn you off meat pies for ever.
Stay tuned for next week's episode. Mr.
Fixit is really helping me out the last cou-
ple ofweeks. 1 was ruining out of material
for this column, but bless his wee -heart, he
has -come to my rescue -,again
