Oh, I wasn’t trying to be a dick either! I’m with you on hating grocery shopping haha

I try to do as much perishable stuff at the farmers market (which is fortunately walking distance) and then do non-perishable as infrequently and in-bulk as possible by car

completely unsurprising, but still disappointing
