Hello friends and welcome to Tuesday 4 in honor of Toni Taddeo.
Here are some questions for you on the topic of shopping.
1. Where do you like to buy your groceries and do you buy by the day, week or month?
I like Shoprite. They are modern, clean and well run.
Years ago I shopped at A&P and also at Acme where my mother shopped. When in Utah I shopped at Harmons and Smith's/
I order through Instacart and sometimes my daughter buys me groceries as well. Somethings are bought by the month, others every 2 weeks as I don't need much.
2. What foods would we always find in your kitchen?
I have several kinds of cheese,, cream, milk, lots of eggs, fresh celery and carrots, Guerero corn tortillas, salsa. The family buys a beef cow from the local farm and that's our meat for the year.
In summer we buy from the Amish.
3.Do you buy anything online and if so what kinds of things are you most likely to buy there?
All of my groceries are bought online. If I need a specialty item I might buy from Amazon.
4. Do you shop with a list on paper, on your phone or do you just shop without a list and maybe come home with things you never planned to buy?
Since it's online I don't need a list,
Bonus Question: What will you be cooking in the coming week?
I have some stuffed peppers my daughter made and froze for me as well as a dozen burritos she made and froze. I have pasta on the list and baked chicken too. I also think I will make a meatloaf if I feel up to it.
Thanks for joining in. I really appreciate it. If you have a subject you'd like to see on Tuesday 4, let me know in comments ! Ideas are very welcome.
So many Americans buy their groceries on line for delivery. I may try it some day but for now the errands get me out of the house and I enjoy the outings.
ReplyDeleteSince my husband is the chef in our home, I leave the menu planning up to him. We do go shopping together, though. Have a great day, Annie!
ReplyDeleteThat was very kind of your daughter. I love both stuffed Peppers and homemade burritos.
ReplyDeleteAfter checking out Shoprite's circular , I make a list , heavy on fresh produce and Emergency Pantry needs , then shop for the month . I enjoy relaxed shopping , with no time constraints , but the opportunity to interact with folks .
ReplyDeleteWe don't have any of the markets you mentioned. Good that you can order online, especially now with all the snow! My daughter brings food for her kids and makes extra for us. I can't eat bell peppers. We eat a lot of cabbage. I think I will try making stuffed cabbage rolls with hamburger meat. Stay warm and cozy!
ReplyDeleteI love stuffed cabbage! I eat a lot of cabbage too, its so good for you.
DeleteI love meat loaf, hope you get one made!!
