There was a time I would grocery shop with reckless abandon, adding items to my cart at will. Lobster, beef tenderloin and other fancy ingredients were regularly on the menu. These days, like many others, I put more thought into my grocery shopping expedition. I create a meal plan for the week and from that develop my grocery list. Admittedly, sticking to the planned grocery list can be difficult, especially when I am shopping with the kids.
