I hate grocery shopping.
Indecisive people. Unhappy children. Aisle hogs. And as for the ridiculous ques, it all becomes a no deal situation for me. But alas, as I am single, unless it is I who goes grocery shopping, there would be no food in the house.
So I went.
My tiny shopping list causes much amusement amongs my friends who have lists as long as their arm and have to cough up well over $250 for groceries. I planned my meals for next week and put together a shopping list - 11 whole items to be precise.
My shopping list for this week's meals included:
- 1/4 Kent pumpkin (nothing better than roast pumpkin or a creamy soup)
- Tomatoes (truss & grape)
- Shaved roast beef (200gr)
- Shaved turkey breast (150gr)
- Veggie patties (Lime & sweet chilli)
- 1lt organic low fat milk
- Tasty cheese (sliced; cracker size for salads)
- Cottage cheese (low fat)
- Macadamia nut bars
- English muffins (wholegrain)
- Nutella (small jar)
Groceries came to the princely amount of $33 - which is quite amusing!
The best part about the shopping experience is getting back to only having to use a hand basket (since my band has been repaired and adjusted my food intake has obviously dropped dramatically) and my local supermarket has finally introduced self service check out which made the whole experience quick and easy!

My shopping lists entertain others too - luckily my husband is used to it now and has stopped asking me if what I have written is all I want. Although today's list with the week's menu plan nearly broke him.
I loved it when I was just shopping with the basket - so easy.
