  1. Cool shopping list - I have a question though...I didn't see anything about vegetables and fruit or bread on that thing. What do you do for those?

  2. Finding my way-at the end of the list there are apples, bananas, bread and broccoli cuts listed. So she is buying veggies, bread and fruit. Great list!
