robinturnerDon't worry,there's nothing icky here.
Nalan and I have a division of labour in shopping as in other areas. I do the day-to-day shopping (bread, milk, eggs, cigarettes etc.) and she generally does the once-a-month big shop, since she's much more competent and confident with a car than I am. What I love is that in addition to buying vegetables, rice, olive oil etc., she remembers to buy raki, and usually returns with a few CDs. In this case it was two albums by Fuat Saka (a Black Sea folk musician) and one by Laço Tayfa, an amazing Turkish folk-jazz band with a bass player who sounds just like Trev, the bass player in my old band.
Marriage was probably a big mistake for both of us, but at least we have the consolation that we made that mistake with the right person.
