today

A day of small disappointments - went to russell market to get a few kitchen things, but the store was closed, but we did find a stone for
sharpening a knife that Charles wanted. And only about $2.

I wanted a heavy cotton duvet /comforter, went to one place that did not
have them. polyester only. called a bunch of others, they did not have them.
Went to Max Mueller to have a bratwurst lunch, but they are closed until
after NY. Went grocery shopping.

Came home and had Bacon Cheese tomato sandwiches, yum. then went to toy
store for travel scrabble, but they did not have it. tried two more places for heavy
cotton duvet,but no, anyway last place said we go pick fabric and
then go to some place near us (but of course nobody ever says exactly where,
you have to keep asking as you get closer and closer), so that is good in a
way, but won't happen so soon now, I am thinking. It is cold here in
Bangalore, well it has been, today was nice.

Charles bought cheetos that are horrible, some warped version. I
bought boursin spready cheese and fake ritz crackers and that is ok. Charles
is making cream of mushroom soup. oh and we had some nice gelato when
consoling ourselves that bratwurst was unavailable. so all was not lost.

Hi Debbie, found your blog when I was searching for something else (so what else is new on the internet? lol).

In any case, if you have not tried looking in FabIndia on Commercial Street or in Koramangala, try there. You should be able to locate the said cotton duvet there. If not, try some of the handloom stores - especially the Rajasthan or Gujarat state handloom store, which will have outlets in B'lore, they should have what you are looking for.
