Shopping, shopping, shopping!

Why is it necessary to shop – or for that matter to clean house or cook meals?   All that just gets in the way of fun.  Or maybe we are just mixed up – people used to work for food and it was a real treat if there was anything left for pleasure.

It’s Wednesday and time to plan.   So I pulled out the stack of recipes I’ve printed from the internet that I wanted to try and put 7 meals for breakfast and about 10 for lunches and dinners, then made a grocery list from those plus things that one does get low on such as toilet paper.   Oh, the things on which we must spend money!

Today it was off to Marlene’s,  a health food and vitamin store, where they sell a few items I like and can’t find elsewhere.

Then Panera’s for a sandwich for lunch.

Costco has chocolate chips without dairy that we like as well as better prices on frozen corn, beans, broccoli.

And finally, the local grocery store which was advertising a number of organic foods on special this week.   So we bought many items today and still – until I actually cook – the refrigerator is half empty.    You probably understand this all too well.   At least we stuck to the list I had made.
