Congratulations to Busdaddy on his loss and you on your perseverance. I’ve never mastered shopping - just go to Walmart or somewhere else about every day. We stopped at Aldi on the way home from the gym for the Second Breakfast items.
I make lists for this new diet, but by the time I get to the store, I’ve misplaced the list and have to try and remember what I had on it. Not easy, when there are so many distractions.
Perhaps I need to make a master list and use it every time I have money for groceries until I have it memorized. Then I can modify it to suit my tastes. Lists. Always with the lists.

You don’t know the art of shopping until you know how to carry everything you buy home in your two hands.
One of our guest pastors talked recently about his first shopping trip in NYC. He got to the check-out and looked at all that stuff and then it hit him, “How do I get all that home?” At that point it’s either pay the supermarket for delivery or hire a cab.
Holy Cow. This from you two?
You can spell, know grammar, and can write.
T-C, you are raising and teaching 8 humans. Face, you remember recipes, understand math etc., and where you last put things.
I can't do any of that, but I do a great job shopping. Somehow I make comprehensive lists with long term needs in mind, remember to bring the list, and am usually get everything on it. We hardly ever run out of anything.
Rats! I'd rather understand grammar, math, and have a working memory!
