Everyone wants to roadtrip with my man Marcus! :D
I answered that HC here 🚙
Grocery Shopping with Marcus
Shopping with Marcus means there is always a list, he is too organized not it have one
He is also too busy with work to do multiple trips throughout the week so you guys have one main shopping trip for the whole week usually on the weekend
Since he is always so busy grocery shopping becomes a way you both can spend some quality time together
You’ll be talking the whole time about your jobs, your families or the kids later on, a funny cat picture you saw, future plans for you guys as a couple, etc
As mentioned in my Road Trip HC, Marcus is rather conscious of the food he buys he tries to make healthy choices. The man has to keep up with all his undercover stings and such so he is trying to stay as healthy as he can with what he puts into his body
So he is always loading the cart up with fresh fruit, veggies, fresh cuts of fish. And he isn’t above eating zoodles as a replacement for regular pasta but if you really want regular pasta he caves painfully easily to you
He never ever argues if you slip things into the cart that aren’t on the list
His favorite aisle is the bulk foods section. He is like a kid in a candy store scooping out nuts and spices into the baggies or reusuable packaging you brought with you. He is not going to pay 12x the price for the pre-packaged stuff when the bulk is the same but cheaper!
He also likes buying the whole roasted coffee beans and grinding them at home, Marcus swears that they are better and you have to agree with him
KitKats are his secret weakness and he always grins at you when you grab one for him at the checkout when you snag your own candy of choice
Loading the groceries in the car is its own process. Heavy items all in the bottom and layer any breakable or lighter items on top, its like Jenga for adults
He also isn’t above looking rather silly with 8+ bags looped over his arms when bringing everything into the house
He is always trying to have it just be ONE trip from the car
And you sure as hell know he helps put everything away into the fridge or pantry, the man doesn’t slack with those things and it is just really nice being partners in small tasks like that
