My Typical Grocery List

Since I just went grocery shopping today, I thought that this post would be very fitting. Also, it’ll give you a glimpse into what I eat. A recipe blog post will come soon.

I live near Stop & Shop, which is excellent because when I lived at home we also lived near a Stop & Shop so I have a card where I can get the posted discounts. I always prepare myself by looking at the weekly circular. Do not underestimate the weekly circular. I always look for deals on vegetables because I love my veggies, but they are too expensive and unless there’s a discount I won’t buy them fresh. Then I look for discounts on fruits as well. These are hard to come by because I don’t like all fruit and sometimes buying them already sliced and on a platter is better and less time consuming. I check to see what condiments I need to refill and if there are deals on those. Condiments are so not cheap, but if I can get 2 for $5, I’ll grab them up. Last is snacks and staples like rice and pasta. Sometimes there are deals on these, but sometimes I’m assed out.

After all of that here is what a typical grocery list looks like:

Broccoli

Spinach

Sweet Potatoes

Sandwich Bread

Cheese

Sandwich meat

Fruit platter or whole fruit

Granola Bars

Eggs

Rice

Pasta

Crackers

Lemon and lime juice

Tea

Seasonings

Condiments

Chicken breasts (thinly sliced)

Cookies or Cookie Dough

Chips (if baby wants)

Almond Milk

Ice Cream

Waffles

Turkey Bacon

Smoothie Mix

 

We’re Going On A Trip

Not really, but here are five places that I would LOVE to go! Let’s get started.

GREECE

Let’s get into this European beauty. Look at that water, that scenery, the buildings. Everything is so beautiful. And don’t get me started on Greek food. I had a friend in middle school who was from Greece and I went to his house for dinner with my mom and WOW. Delicious food for days. So yes, Greece is on my travel list.

BORA BORA

Bora freaking Bora is a must. I’ve been wanting to travel here for a couple of years now. To me it’s one of those baecation destinations, so I was waiting for the one. Recently, one of my favorite YouTube couples went to Bora Bora and they vlogged their experience. I don’t smile often, but while watching that video I was smiling so hard my cheeks hurt.

 

TORONTO

My best friend and I want to go here because we are big fans of Drake. She really wants to go because she thinks she’ll run into Drake and he’ll ask her to marry her. A girl can dream right? Anyway, Toronto 2k18 has to happen. I’m ready to run through the 6 with my woes.

DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

Yup! Most of my friends are Dominican thanks to high school. I love them, I love their culture and their all baddies. When I go to DR, I’m definitely going to come back a baddie after I finish eating mangu con salami y patacones and everything else.

LOS ANGELES

I just want to visit LA to see what the hype is about, to be very honest. Also, I want to soak up some sun and live like a California girl.
