    My mini-challenge figure (5/11) currently remains the same.

    Online (food) grocery shopping mainly consisted upon UHT milk and coffee purchases. The other few items acquired can be used alongside my existing food "stocks".

    My mini-challenge figure is still at 5/11. I am using up them slowly. Yesterday, for example, had a blackberry slice which was made last year with late Summer 2017's blackberries in it. Still a few left!
