Shoplog: January 2017 - Action & Lidl

Welcome to the first shoplog on this blog!

I'm planning to make this a monthly thing or maybe a weekly thing. We will see.

In the beginning of this week, my husband and I went to the Action store. This is an amazingly inexpensive store with a big fluctuating range from household, stationery, cosmetics, food, toys, textiles, glass, porcelain and pottery, seasonal, decorative and do it yourself. Action has 800 stores in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, Luxembourg and Austria.

These items all came from Action this week.

While komboloi have beads forming a closed circle, begleri beads are threaded on an open strand, usually in a symmetrical formation, with equal weighting at either end. Begleri come in many forms, consisting of semi-precious stone, wood or metal beads.

Historically, begleri was associated with the Greek mangas subculture, and the rebetiko style of music, popular from the 1960s onwards.
