Shopping

I remember reading years ago about how French women shop every day for food for that night's meal and thinking - that's just insane. I had a weekly calendar of every child's schedule and shopped once a week, planning for leftovers.

Some days, with soccer, volleyball or gymnastics practices, I just planned for McDonald's or Wendy's - knowing I couldn't get home to cook those nights - and if I did go to the effort, it was wasted.

Now, however, I find that shopping every day seems to be my pattern. Since there are just two of us, I tend to just go pick up a salmon dish from Eatzi's or Whole Foods and that's that. Or, like tonight, I go get two steaks, two potatoes and some lettuce. Tomorrow, I'll think of something else and go find it.

Maybe Bubba's.
