What's the weather in your country?

My name is Katie. I am from Wisconsin. Wisconsin has 4 seasons: winter, spring, summer, and fall. The winter in Wisconsin is long, may 4 or 5 months. It is cold and snowy. It is windy and cloudy. I wear warm clothes in the winter. I wear a big black coat, gloves, a hat, and a scarf.

The spring is short and cool in Wisconsin. Sometimes it rains. There are many flowers. In summer it is very hot and humid. It's usually sunny. Sometimes there are thunderstorms in the night. In summer I wear shorts or skirts. I like the summer because I don't wear a coat.

The fall in Wisconsin is cool and cloudy. It is windy. It is very beautiful. The trees turn red, orange, gold, and brown. Fall is my favorite season in Wisconsin. I like to walk and read outside. I wear sweaters, jeans, a jacket, and a scarf.

Shopping

My name is Robbin. I like to shop at Sears. I can buy clothes, shoes, furniture, and electronics. A sweater is $30 and shoes are $35. I do not buy new clothes very often. A mirror is $15 and a small television is $150. A computer is $300 and a printer is $85.

I like to shop at Jewel-Osco for food. I shop for food every Saturday. Most fruit is expensive in Chicago. Oranges are $1 each and blueberries are $4.50 a package. But bananas are cheap. They are $.70 a pound.

1. Where does Robbin like to shop for food?
