I'm hungry.

In the grocery store the other day, I picked up a basket, and began shopping for a few things. I was moving through the produce section as I usually do. First, I look at the bananas. They're extremely green, so I don't buy any, then I go to the lettuce and it's really wet and wilted, so I don't pick any of that up either. No salad this week. Then, I head towards the zucchini and mushrooms. Two items that can't be bad in the produce department. Really, there's nothing that can be wrong with either of these. Have you ever heard of a bruised mushroom? I filled up a bag and as I was placing it in my basket, I noticed that there was a grocery list in the bottom of the basket. I was in a bit of a strange mood and thought that it might be great to ditch the things that were on my list and try shopping with somebody else's list for a change. Unfortunately, when I looked at the list it the following items listed: sandwich meat, coffee whitener, buns OR bread, and sugar. That was it. Hardly seemed worth a trip to the grocery store if you ask me. I probably would have just grabbed a jar of peanut butter, spread it on some saltines, and drank my coffee black. If you want to try shopping with somebody else's list, try mine out. I guarantee there's at least six dozen different meals that could be made with a combination of the following ingredients + anything you have lying around.
