thefridayfiveIt's a seemingly never ending task - grocery shopping.
1. Do you make up a dinner plan for the coming week?
2. Do you make up a shopping list and stick to it when shopping?
3. What is one thing that you always buy, but never put down on a list?
4. Is there anything that you always think you are out of and come home with it to discover you already have a year’s supply on hand?
5. Do you get your groceries delivered?

When both my husband and I had long commutes to demanding jobs, it helped us cook on the weekend for the coming week's lunches and dinners. Now, it just lets me organize and try new recipes, plus make sure I am using pantry items and extra veggies.
2. Do you make up a shopping list and stick to it when shopping?
Yes, see above.
3. What is one thing that you always buy, but never put down on a list?
Nothing really. I make my own desserts (and plan that as well,) so the ingredients need to be on the list.
4. Is there anything that you always think you are out of and come home with it to discover you already have a year’s supply on hand?
Not often. Some years ago, I somehow collected three boxes of corn starch (it took a while to get through that,) but that is all I can recall.
5. Do you get your groceries delivered?
No. When we lived in a big city and it first started, we tried it, but were not huge fans. It has just become available here now, but I get most of my produce from farmers and am picky about meat and seafood, so...
