Shopping on a bike
I often nip to the local supermarket on my bike. I have investigated numerous ways of carrying my shopping home. I still have NO IDEA how classical French people on bikes manage to carry baguettes under their arms! However, I found this good-value and very entertaining 'picnic panier' in a shop called Casa today:Now, this is how to carry two baguettes home safely!

Smoked trout - oh I love that!!! mmmmmm =)
This is ironic, as I just returned home from 1 1/2 hrs spent grocery shopping. The nearest grocery store is 20 min away by car. I left the store with more than 12 bags. Then I had to take them all into the house (4 at a time), and unpack everything. When all is said and done, it takes over 2 hours! I'd GLADLY trade that experience to go shopping by bike... I'd much rather get that exercise each day than to dread grocery shopping day! =)
I love it!
I loved every bit of your other post, if you could send some cherries this way that would be lovely.
Love Lou xxx
Perfect! Sounds like the ingredients for a lovely picnic
Love the bike and the picnic panier, but rather you than me, lolol. I haven't been on a bike since I was a kid, and even then I wasn't very good, so I can't see myself riding 13km down to the supermarket and back up the hill again with the shopping.
Oh fantastic I love your bike x
The one on my blog Betsey, well I can honestly say it is well must be over 20 years since I rode a bike!
LOVE THE BIKE BAG....I have riding my bike on my list.....

I love it, red & white spots.... my fave!!! :)
That is seriously, seriously awesome ... do you unattach the bag and carry the groceries inside or carry them individually (the 10 carrier bags I juggled today prompt my question ... :)
Wow! I'd love to stock that in my shop. Is there a maker's name? Hope you don't mind me asking but it's just right for summer!

I would be in real trouble if I had to ride a bike to go shopping. :-) Have not been on a bike in many, many years, and when I go, I have way to much to carry on a bike.
I added a note about raccoons on my last post.:) I guess I thought raccoons were everywhere. I loved your comment about the food sounding exotic, as fried catfish, hush puppies, & fries are "down home cooking" around here. :-D
I passed your challenge on - hope I did it right.

What a great invention and a great find for you! I love your pictures of the bike by the door with the flowers and the fresh bread.....very French!
Have a good evening!

Aughhhh....I need this bad!Only in PINK for the library. We have a bike path to our local library and this would be perfect. I am nervous and off balance with a backpack on. Just a delightful find!!!!
Fab, love the bag! xxxxx
That is really very nifty!
I have a heavy suspicion that it should have been in blue instead...
It's just perfect! I just adore those polka dots!
Francois can do the baguette under the arm trick a roo! He actually got stopped by a police officer last week for riding his bike too fast! I don't think that the police have quite enough to do in our small town!
Cooooool that you bought the chocoholic stamps! I haven't picked them yet! How do they really smell?
Oh, this is a much better solution than having bags hanging from your bike or a backpack when you ride it. The other appealing thing is of course the colour! And by the look of it you definitely managed to carry a lot of stuff.. I can't imagine how can one carry baguetts under his/her arms and ride a bike...!! I have seen though girls in Sweden tride their bikes to a fancy party in high heels and ball dresses - it's real fun to see! (Sorry for having to delete and add the comment yet again, I can't seem to avoid typos!!)
Great bike bag.
I so wish I could ride a bike.
Oh dear Floss - I think you are using Internet Explorer...is that right? I use 'normal' font size - the same font as you do actually..What I have noticed is that when I open my blog in Internet Explorer (I use Firefox when I blog) the font becomes weird and the more you get into history - the smaller it becomes :(..I thought it happens to all the blogger bogs in IE, but seems it is just the case with mine :( I would need to investigate that, but if you also have Firefox installed you can try to check it out there - it should look fine!
I love it! I love the bike too! My husband is dutch and I have always dreamed of one day moving there and the first thing I would do is buy a big black bike - I envy you!
