Mission #1: Shopping List

Dear Vegan at Heart,

Your first mission is to create a shopping list.

If you're like me, the following has happened: you stare at the fridge wishing you had something and you think, "Oh yeah! That's what I need! When I go to the store, I'll remember to get it." And then when you find yourself at the store on your way to someplace else while you're hungry and the store is about to close, you don't remember it.

A shopping list doesn't have to be a fancy pre-made Shopping List that you buy at the Shopping List Store. Here’s what you do:

1. Get a pad of paper or stack pieces of scrap paper into a neat little pile and put it in a convenient spot in the kitchen. Put a pencil next to it. When you're at home and you remember something that you need, pick your butt up, walk your butt to the kitchen, and write it down.

-OR-

2. If you have an electronic PDA or a Blackberry, create a shopping list on it. That way you will always have it with you!

Take your timer (cell phone timer or oven timer is fine), set it for 5 minutes, and complete your first mission. It will probably take less than 2 minutes!

What to put on the list I agree - need suggestions of WHAT to put on the list. So far, I have Veganaise, Earth Balance buttery spread, tofurky items. Also, I'm doing green smoothies so I buy lots of greens (kale, chard, spinach) and fruits (banana, strawberries). What else...

First mission How about, giving some suggestions on what to buy. Being new to this i really enjoyed the part int he Vegenated movie where they all went shopping and it explained a lot of foods as vegan that you would not normally have thought of them as being so.
