When I was in college three things were always on the list for the grocery, which is to say they were never on the list because it was a given that I needed them; pretzels, white minute rice - Uncle Ben's only, and soy sauce.
I was a simple girl. Also, broke.
Now the things that are always on the list these days are drastically different.
Coke - because my husband has a problem.
Bacon - there is not enough bacon in this universe to satisfy these carnivores I live with.
Fruit snacks - not for who you might expect them to be for. Their father!
Veggie straws - all for me, I do not share them. Ever.
Socks - the boys are clinging to their Arkansas heritage not by going barefoot outside but in socks.
I miss the simple days of pretzels for breakfast and rice with soy sauce for lunch and dinner...

Bacon. ALWAYS.
Just meat in general. The serious carnivore must be a Boy thing.
But my list always includes baking stuff. Flour. Sugar. Powedered sugar. Brown Sugar. Crisco.
I just went to Sams Club today and bought 2 - 4 lb 8 oz bags of chocolate chips. Boy did the cashier give me a LOOK!
SOOO glad my youngest isn't the only one to run around outside in socks. We live in Kentucky for God's sake - what's the matter with barefoot? I've threatened to start making him buy his own socks. Drives me freakin' NUTS!
My kids did the whole sock thing outside too and then I bought them black socks - so uncool. - They stopped wearing socks outside. I eventually bought them white again. :) And just for the record, fruit snacks are gross! So happy you're posting!
Don't forget all that beer you had for those midnight snacks. Heh heh heh.
