Food Shopping

I hate food shopping.  The chief reason is that everytime I go I forget something.  Don't say it.  Make a list.  Everyone tells me that.  I don't know how many times I have made a list and still forgotten things, either 1. I forgot to put it on the list, 2. It was on the list and apparently I had a brain dead moment and still forgot it or 3. I forgot to bring the list to the store in the first place.  Anyway it is really annoying to me, to spend over an hour doing a full shopping, fill up the back of my car with bags, schlep them into the house, unpack them, just to realize I have to drive back over there again either right away or in the next couple of days depending on what it is that I forgot.  I will close this by saying that although I hate food shopping, I hate letting my husband do it more since he is worse than I am at forgetting stuff even if I give him a list.

I know how you feel. I do the same thing all the time. In fact I am about to go to the store now, we will see what I forget this time!!

By the way, our dog was fine, and we were laughing the whole time. It was quite a funny site. Me with the fishing pole chasing after a dog, and my husband trying to get the hook out. We were all cracking up.

Grocery Shopping is only fun when I'm hungry. And I mean ravaged!
And with three kids in tow.....it doesn't happen. We will eat left over ketchup packets and smarties for days before I'll take them with me!!
