Thanks, Nafer Nafe

I often wondered what would happen if I forgot my grocery list. I found out today. I almost burst into tears in Aldi, but one must be brave in the battle. I scribbled the week's menu to the best of my ability on the back of an envelope. I shouldn't have worried. Nathan saved the day. He is better than any list. He knows the store by heart and cruised the aisles with ease. "We need dis and dis and dat and dat and some of deese." We only forgot one thing.

Ah, Sweet Victory!

Too bad he can't drive--you could just send him to the store.

Yes, dangle that carrot.

cute! I'm a list person to the core. I understand the panic. I just did this yesterday, only I had to go to Wal-mart so I know my bill was bigger than yours. I only forgot one thing too - light bulbs. It's always something.

Kelli said...

Thanks, that girl, I had forgotten to add light bulbs to MY list!

You can count on bloggers for SO many things!

Q-tips and lightbulbs are always forgotten. I manage to forget these even when they are on the list. Glad Nathan could help, what a guy.
