The Moleskine shopping list

The Moleskine shopping list

I enjoy the supermarket, always have, but I like efficiency, too, and it irks me to have to walk four aisles back the way I came because I forgot something. I get pleasure from finding a way to do a good job in the minimum number of steps. This is why my shopping lists are evolving into an OCD art. 

First I started putting them in my carry-around Moleskine; then I started breaking that down into categories — from the veg section, in the baking section, from the freezer… Today I’ve taken it to a new level. Because I’m buying a lot for the week, I’ve got to type the list out in Pages then I’ll be copying it to the Moleskine to take with us. How anal is that?
