Summer 'Bucket" List: Go to a Local Cultural Store

Going to a local Mexican Grocery that opened recently was on our list of things to do this summer.

 The kids all enjoyed looking at all the interesting and different things that were for sale there.

 The owner showed us a tortilla press...

 and lasso rope...

 and try on hats.

And what did we buy? 

An assortment of Mexican candy...

 a brown sugar cone...

 some cactus to grill...

and an assortment of sweet breads.

A trip to any ethnic market would be equally fun, such as an Asian market. Do you have any specialty groceries near you?
