separating the shopping from the cooking

[geeksdoitbetter]

one of the things i often forget is that after a successful shopping run, i'm usually too tired to actually cook anything i'd bought

in my head, it seems so possible and normal to sweep by the grocery after work and then come home to make a delicious meal

but, in my reality, it hardly ever works out

i'm trying to be more gentle with myself and letting the shopping day be separate from the cooking day

Also, I just thought of this, you can get more and more things frozen that you used to only be able to find canned (or jarred). For example, I just found out that you can get artichoke hearts frozen. I LOVE artichoke hearts.

SO JEALOUS! Frozen artichoke hearts still haven't made it to where I live.

Although. I found frozen kale recently (NOM!), as well as spinach frozen in ice cube size chunks, so artichoke hearts can't be far off!
