Same here Im afraid. I make a list before I go. I look at all the flyers first and make up my menu for the week that way according to whats on sale.
I also end up cooking the same thing over and over and Im really fed up. So I get my cooking books out and try new things. I open the book at a random page and thats what I'll do. Sometimes its great, sometimes not so great!!!

I always get into that same dilemma. There are just times I want something "different" than the same old stuff I buy every week from the grocery store. When I don't know what I want to eat, I like to look through my cookbooks for ideas. These days, its easy to find recipes online, but if you don't know what you want its kind of hard to. Cookbooks kind of narrow it down for me, I guess. ^-^

I know how you feel. My husband sometimes wonder how come I spend so much time doing groceries. I mean beside the regular necessities like bread , egg, milk...I have to juggle my mind on what's for family dinner and matching it with my budget , now that's really a challenge.
Thank God for the variety of Deli meat, they are always coming handy. And if you notice right now in magazine aisle they sell this like mini cook book for a quick recipe. It's not bad at all. Usually i just flip those book and get the one with "less ingredients"...hahaha...talking about cut your budget buying all unknown spices and seasoning.

I never have trouble on it, as I never plan, I just go to shop and I can pick what I like to have the most for my dinner. I always choose healthy and not expensive food.

It always depend of the place. At some place there is only one thing that is good to eat so I always take the same thing because I love it and I have no choice.But when everythings is good or it's the first time in the restaurant my descision are always long to make. And after a long moment of reflection I choose the same plate as my friends. I think it's because we never want to make a bad descision when we are hungry.
