Grocery shopping is a chore. Sort of like mopping the kitchen floor. I do
it but I don't enjoy it. I enjoy cooking (and eating), but driving 20 miles
(one way) to buy food isn't my idea of fun. So I make a list and shop
pretty much shop once a month. Sure, I'll go to pick up milk, eggs or bread
at the dollar store the which is only 6 miles away. Other than that, I make
a list and fill the freezer and pantry from Pubix. Sometimes I go to the
meat market on Lady's Island and the vegetable stand on Friday or Saturday.
But I really don't like shopping.
