I was getting some dried chillies during my usual grocery shopping yesterday when I saw this. A lady who was choosing some garlics just next to me started to peel the outer layers of every single clove of garlics that she chose before packing them up for weighing. I reckon she took about a kilo of garlics, so she was there for a good 10 minutes or so, just peeling. She made a big mess in the process with the peeled skin scattered all over the floor, oblivious to my staring eyes. Seriously, how pathetic can you be? I don't think the few cents you save from that peeled garlics can make you a millionaire!
I almost wanted to tell the miserly aunty off but a cleaner beaten me to it. The cleaner came to sweep the floor and calmly told her to stop. Embarrassed, the aunty walked away in a huff, but not without her bag of skinned garlics. Hurrah to common sense!

A stormy end, a brighter tomorrow?
