Last week I had free time, even though it wasn't much, I was able to make good use of it and coincidentally my wife asked me for help to buy fruit that would be made into rujak or you could call it a spicy salad. It is my wife's favorite and must be done every day. Why is that because my wife is tired of working, plus her housework, preparing all our needs, so eating fruit salad is like me time for her, which keeps her soul healthy so she doesn't get depressed, he said..ha..ha.
And today he asked me for pineapple because there are several fruits available in our refrigerator, so I just have to buy pineapple and I will grant my wife's request so that the earth can rotate on its axis and to avoid nuclear war. which might happen if I don't grant my wife's simple request. 🤣🤣
Traveling about 10 minutes from my house to a seller who specializes in pineapples, I chose some pineapples which seemed sweet, but because I didn't seem to be an expert at that, I was afraid that the pineapples I chose would actually be sour and inedible. Because there were so many choices of pineapples sold at this seller and I couldn't choose, I finally asked the pineapple seller for help to help me choose the best quality and sweetest tasting pineapples. Price is not a problem for me because the price of the most expensive pineapple sold here is only Rp. 10,000 or the equivalent of 0.65 U$ dollars. Still very affordable. And I'm also not the wife who can bargain for an item to buy to get a discount, it seems like if I did the same thing as my wife my self-esteem would be torn apart..he..he.
Finally, after less than 10 minutes, the trader found the pineapples I wanted and I bought 2 pineapples at once to stock up for several days. And you know, for the 2 pineapples I bought, I only spent IDR. 15,000 or the equivalent of 1 U$ dollars. Very affordable, right? My heart is happy that my mission was successful and nuclear war will not happen and I will take the pineapple home with a happy heart. And before going home I asked the seller, if the pineapple is not eaten immediately, how many days can the pineapple last? He said the pineapple could only last for 3 days at room temperature and 2 weeks in the refrigerator. However, I never store it for that long because our pineapple fruit will run out in a matter of days.
OK, friend, that's my story about shopping for pineapples, what about shopping for pineapples in your country? Let's share and my best regards from TomiDiwirja, Indonesia
