dragonlady7How did I just manage to spend $294 in a single trip to the grocery store?
That's what happens when you haven't been shopping in a month.
For the record, I would like to state that I had eaten just prior to the trip, and upon reflection I bought nothing extravagant. That's what happens when you run down your supplies of all your staples at once.
There's still stuff I didn't get, though. I'm almost out of safety razor cartridges and cream of mushroom soup, to name two things I know of already.
Sigh.
A lie: there was one extravagant and unneccessary thing. We got a whole duckling for half price. It's in the freezer for some mysterious future occasion. (It had a sell-by date of today: "use or freeze by 9/25". The whole thing was marked $22 but on sale for $10.) Given Z's feelings on duck, I don't think this was a bad idea. But now I have to find out how to prepare duckling. With any luck he'll feel adventurous and do it up himself one of these days.
Tonight was beef stroganoff. The rest of the week will be beef stew, swiss cheese soup, split pea soup, and probably a couple different kinds of baked goods. See? Not extravagant.
iTunes library is at 12.41 GB after the addition of Z's albums. I know I've missed out a lot: the library on my old computer is 28.9 GB. But there's a lot of stuff I don't listen to, so I might just leave it be until I miss it. I still do have to add in everything I've acquired since I acquired Z, of course, but that's mostly my Recent playlist, so it'll be relatively easy to find it all.
