I have found that if I organize my grocery list by categories I have an easier time remembering all that I want to include on my list, and the process of creating the list is quite simple and quick. The categories which help me when creating my list are: breakfast, lunch, dinner, veggies, fruits, drinks, snacks, and other. You know I’m a meal planner, so I also include my list of meals for the week at the bottom of my list. I like to write my list on a large piece of paper and try to keep it neat.
I am able to look at a category, like “breakfast”, and think through what we want to eat for breakfast that week. I list those items, and then move to the next category. I come to the end of the list and know that it is complete because I have an orderly way to accomplish this weekly task.
What about you? Do you use a grocery list?
Until next time,
Charissa
