I’m a Monday/Thursday shopping gal. I buy enough food Thursday to last us through the weekend and to have enough food for breakfast/lunch on Monday before the haul again.
Thursday is so key. At that point you kind of know whether you’ll have dinner plans Friday/Saturday or Sunday so you can meal plan accordingly.
Great advice. Also the Saturday morning grocery store rush is no fun.
It’s not ideal because it’s typically busy and they’re still restocking from the weekend BUT it’s just when we run out of fresh food. But it doesn’t even feel ideal going to the grocery store these days haha
Yes! Love a routine here too. We also do our food shop online and saves so much time. Here in the UK we can also have it delivered to the house which saves some more time 🥳

Love the idea of Monday shopping, too. Might need to try it out :)

Your kitchen is lovely. Do you mind sharing the paint color?
Thank you so much! The paint color is Mount Etna by Sherwin Williams 💙
Not a mom yet but I love this! My grocery box comes on Mondays and I pick it on Fridays.
I also do laundry on Wednesdays or Fridays - made weekends much more enjoyable than being stuck at home due to turning over a load!
Yes! Moving as much as possible out of the weekends has created actual free time which sooo life-giving!
"type-A girl’s way of creating space for spontaneity and leisure" - yes yes YES! Always scheduling spontaneity 👌🏻 lol
It’s the Type A way 😂 otherwise I’m on to the next thing on my list!
Love a grocery pickup!!! I’m a type A, scheduling mom too so I feel this deeply. So good to find a new routine that better suites your family! 👏🏼🙌🏼
Yesss! It is such a good feeling! Cheers to being Type A - I think it is a gift (mostly ☺️)

I keep trying to get my husband on board with the delivery part and he won’t budge… yet. 😄
Yes to being a schedule mom who plans unscheduled time! I'm glad I'm not the only one!
It’s the only way for me to make it happen!
I only have one baby (13 months) but I needed this hack LOL thank you for sharing Courtney!
That's such a fun age (and also a handful)! I just could not spend time fighting through a grocery store... maybe when mine are older!
