As I mentioned yesterday, I did have to do a small shopping — at a Canadian grocery store. The main reason was to get cat food, or Lacey would not have been a happy cat this morning.
There was a reasonable price on cauliflower, so I popped one in the cart. Same with grapes. Then, I looked down at the grapes and saw that they were from Mexico, and I realized that I hadn't vetted all of the products in my cart. That caused me to check the cauliflower. It was from the USA. I put it back.
We are serious about this up here. It is not just a one-day event although yesterday did demand a bit more of us than the average day. Many of us are avoiding American products as much as possible on a consistent basis. It's a small thing, but it is what we can do.
Meanwhile . . . speaking of Lacey, I was surprised to happen by this old photo.
It was a picture of Lacey on my lap, six years ago, shortly after she moved in with us. She has never snuggled with me much, but she did on that day.
We are doing the same here with U.S. products, leaving them on the shelves.
