Candy’s shopping trip!

My mother and I went shopping last Saturday. We first visited a shoe

shop as I needed a new pair for school. My mother bought a pair of low-
heeled shoes for herself also.

Next, we entered a supermarket. Mother bought some foodstuff and

provisions here. I helped her with the trolley. When mother had completed
her list of grocery items, she went to the florist's to buy flowers. I preferred
the bookshop, so we went different ways. I bought a story book and some
birthday cards. By that time mother had selected her flowers. Together, we
left the place. Feeling thirsty, we adjourned to a coffee-house nearby and
ordered a cold lemonade each.

Finally, t he emporium was our last stop. Here we added some T-

shirts and shorts. By now, we were tired and heavily loaded. So we
took a taxi home. I enjoy shopping with mother on a Saturday.
