    My wife and I alternate cooking nights, so we sit down on the weekend and plan what we're going to do for the week and then we make a list of stuff and go shopping for anything we don't have on hand.

    We shop at Costco, so a lot of stuff in bulk...so some trips are bigger than others.

    My list is pretty much the same as @LiveLoveFitFab minus the green tea and + dark chocolate.

    @ds41980 I hope you don't live in the UK as we're currently having an iceberg lettuce shortage (due to bad weather in Europe). One of the major supermarkets has started rationing them to three per person!!

    Rationing lettuce? It's like Churchhill's era all over again...jk :wink:
