What is on your grocery list this week?

Instead of shopping once a month I am trying to shop a little every week in the hopes of not overlooking items inthe pantry, etc... I have a list this week that includes a few items that we have run out of, but wouldn;t necessarily need to buy every week. I am excited that my menu through next week takes up very little additional buying to make the meals.

Here is my list for shopping on Sunday:

Pretzels
Applesauce
(hamburger and hotdog buns for sundays BBQ)
(cake mix and frosting for national night out)
Tortillas
egg noodles
milk 2 gal.
cheese (not anymore - got 3lbs from a neighbor last night!)
Yogurt, 10
eggs, dz
salad (for me this includes, toms, cucs, etc...)
onions
fruit
ranch dressing
oatmeal
sour cream
cereal
cream of mushroom soup


I *think* that is it...I might need to add a few extras but I really cannot think of anything at the moment. Myabe a few healthy snacks just for mommy to get through her pregnancy munchie moments - like some nuts or jerky.

I just went to fill in some areas so we'd have staples and could use up pantry stuff and the insane amount of veggies from our CSA. I bought:

grapes
bananas
apples
coffee
huge block o' cheddah cheese
mozzarella (for pizza)
pizza sauce
goldfish crackers for snack for J for summer school

That was about it...I think.

The only things that are always on our weekly list are:

apples
bananas
grapes (if on sale)
milk
salad (this is the bagged salad, tomatoes, cucumbers, a yellow pepper, and carrots if we're low/out)
yogurt

Things we buy about every other week are:
bread
cheese
my rice milk
lunchmeat

I still have to look at what's in there and what I can do with it before I even think about making a grocery trip this weekend!
