Shina's kumbakarnaseva bags vegetables

Who thought Shina's kumbakarnaseva would turn so useful? Shina's mother in law is a very happy woman these days. Because her daughter in law has become very resourceful.

Shina sleeps daily on her bus commute. People who are not lucky enough to get a seat
put a big load of stuff on her lap. But the sleepy Shina never checks the items on her lap. When her stop comes, she jumps up as if on autopilot and dumps everything on the seat.

The other day the bus driver and conductor came in search of her. Guess Why? They wanted to return a plastic bag full of Chinese Potatoes (koorkka) which Shina left on her seat. Shina was puzzled. Actually this bag had been given by one of the bus passengers for her to hold. As usual Shina left it on the seat when her stop came. The real owner too forgot about it. Naturally, the bus conductor thought it was Shina's. Anyway ma-in-law said that there was no sense in wasting a good thing and quickly accepted it. At this rate, Shina's grocery bill is going to reduce considerably.
