My Modern Mother's
Shopping for kitchen needs



"Eomma, shouldn't we give something to the neighbors?" do-hyun.


"Ehh.. Is that so?" eun-kyun said astonishedly, he did not know this.


"Of course, Grandma said it. I also saw myself when there was a new neighbor in the next apartment giving a cake to grandma when they just moved." The boy looked back on what happened a few months ago when they were still in Indonesia, then Mama Ina also explained what was done by those who had just moved house.


"So so," rubbed his chin while thinking for a moment. It seemed that he indeed had to do so, in order for them to have a good relationship with the neighbors who were on the same floor.


"Then what do you think we should give them?" ask Eun-Kyun.


Do-Hyun's eyes glanced the other way, thinking for a moment. 'Better to make than to buy' The inner.


"Ahh. I know.


What if I make Klepon, isn't it very easy and practical?" he gave me an idea.


"Call?" reiterate Eun-Kyun, she has been thinking since. Take his phone and open the internet.


^^^Klepon or klepon is a type of traditional Indonesian food or traditional cake that belongs to the group of hawker markets. This delicious food is made from glutinous rice flour which is formed like small balls and filled with brown sugar and then boiled in boiling water


"Ah.. Let's make it." Eun-Kyun said.


Do-Hyun nodded obediently. Things like this are what arouses his spirit, because some days are boring days, he does the same activity every day so it becomes a little bored.


That's because no child is his age, can not be invited to play or do something fun.


Eun-Kyun glanced back at the internet, looking for any materials needed to make this Klepon.


None other than; glutinous rice flour, then brown sugar but can be replaced with dark chocolate, and also grated coconut, brown, there is also pandan leaf juice that can be replaced with food coloring plus a little vanilla to make it fragrant.


Eun-Kyun sees these ingredients she hasn't bought yesterday, "Hyun-ah... Let's go to the super market. We buy the ingredients before making the phone." Eun-Kyun asked


"Ne," he eagerly departed from his most comfortable place, then entered the room and took the mask that had been specially purchased for him.


While Eun-Kyun herself picks up her wallet, mask and hand sanitizer.


The two left the apartment, stopped a taxi that was about to pass by and went to a nearby supermarket.


"You happy?" ask Eun-Kyun.


Do-Hyun nodded, "Yes, i'm happy" Do-Hyun replied.


Along the way, Do-Hyun notices things out there that look a little lonely. The streets are not as crowded as he had seen in the drama at the same time Mama Ina used to be.


But the boy did not ask his mother, he knew the reason why the streets were not as crowded as Drama.


Arriving at the supermarket, the two began to look for ingredients that they had to prepare.


Eun-Kyun pushes the trolley towards the foodstuffs, she picks up two packs of glutinous rice flour.


"Just two? what if I want to eat again?" comment Do-Hyun.


"So, how much should it be?" ask Eun-Kyun.


"Add three more packs, I might want it later" Do-Hyun said.


Eun-Kyun simply obeys her son's wishes. He took three packs of glutinous rice flour and gave it to Do-Hyun to keep it in a trolley.


Moving looking for dark chocolate, because there is no brown sugar so replaced Dark Chocolat. furthermore some other ingredients such as food coloring and vanilla.


The only coconut meat he found was; dried coconut meat, "There's no coconut meat other than this," Eun-Kyun pointed at the packed coconut ivory."


Since there was no other choice, they took it and placed it in a trolley.


While Do-Hyun is also sitting in a trolley, he receives the materials taken by his mother and puts them in a trolley.


It is fun to shop with his mother, this strengthens the relationship between mother and child.


"You don't want anything?" eun-kyun asked, they happen to be here. Why not just buy things that your child likes?


"Emm.. okay. I want-" Do-Hyun mentioned some snacks she wanted. Nothing else exists; chocolate wafer, biscuits with some flavor, then switch on other fruits.


Their spending, which was a little, has now increased.


Eun-Kyun also bought a few kilograms of rice, sesame oil, a few kilograms of pork and beef, then 1 pack of chicken thighs, 5 boxes (1 Box\=10 eggs) eggs and some other foods that have not been purchased.


The mother and son also kept chatting, Do-Hyun several times laughed because her mother could not be relied upon when choosing good fruit.


"Isn't this fragrant?" ask Eun-Kyun.


Do-Hyun who is not in the trolley and is currently beside her mother immediately shook her head.


"No, it's too cooked. It would be as mushy as porridge if left for two days in the refrigerator" Do-Hyun replied.


Instead, his little hand took the fruit that was located not far from there, brought the mango fruit closer to his nose and inhaled the aroma of the fruit.


"The smell is sweet, and also not too ripe like the choice of Eomma. It's good" Do-Hyun said, as if he was very experienced.


"You say it like you're an expert" Eun-Kyun's voice was a little loud so some people turned their eyes to the mother and the child.


"Of course, I'm experienced. I always go to the supermarket with my grandmother when she's shopping" Do-Hyun replies.


"Ah, this kid"


Unknown to them, a man was standing stiffly in his place when he heard a familiar voice in his ear.


The voice that disappeared a few years ago was so familiar in his ear. As he turned around, his hand was instantly blocked by the hand of another woman.


"Honey, where are you going?" ask the woman.


"No, I seem to hear someone I know around here," he immediately left the woman for a moment and searched around. But he no longer found it.


'Is it just my feelings? It was like hearing Eun-kyun's voice...


Ahhe... He really drove me crazy for abandoning me, ' The man's inner self. He soon returns to his lover's side, but his mind is no longer there and begins to remember the woman who disappeared 10 years ago.


Do-Hyun and her mother have finished shopping for their needs, immediately go to the cashier and count all the groceries.


Their total expenditure reached 1,000,000 South Korean Won or equivalent to 12,000,000 Indonesian Rupiah.


This is not a small amount, but seeing their groceries that meet the contents of the trolley, all this is equivalent to the price spent.


Some work helped the mother-of-one to put in a taxi that had been booked, then they passed from there.


...*.......*...


"Yeah... Let's help Eomma" Eun-Kyun said from the kitchen.


"Ne," Do-Hyun replied. Put the iPad on the couch and approach Eun-Kyun.
