Let's Go Krogering

When I moved to Cincinnati, I couldn’t find the grocery store. There wasn’t a single familiar name. I grew up with Fred Meyer, Safeway, and Albertson’s. In Cincinnati, I saw Bigg’s, IGA, and Kroger, Kroger, Kroger. It didn’t take me long to learn that “let’s go Krogering,” was code for grocery shopping.


Shirt, Christopher & Banks (thrifted). Skirt, Jack BB Dakota. Belt, Forever 21. Sandals, Aerosoles. Earrings, Monica D. Bangles, Claire’s and Target. Wrap bracelet, Mixit. Bag Charming Charlie.

I used to prefer Bigg’s (because of the muffins), but the store near my house closed. I’m not too broken up about shifting to Kroger because it has a Starbucks inside. Grocery shopping with a latte in hand is much more tolerable than shopping caffeine-free.
