Carson went grocery shopping yesterday. This does not happen that often. He gets cranky at the grocery store. But he understands that I am tired when I get off work so he lovingly tried to be a great husband and help out.
Later that evening, as I was preparing to make dinner, I noticed that the contents in the fridge were practically the same exact contents that were in there when I left to work. That's wierd. I could have sworn he told me he was going to the grocery store. So I ask him, but not in a whiny voice because he hates that, where he put all the groceries. He tells me he put them away. Okay. Where did you put them away? (still not whiny). He tells me he put them in the pantry. Thats even more weird because everyone knows that you can't put milk and yogurt (which I crave just about every day) in the pantry. So I open up the pantry door and sure enough, there sitting on the first shelf are the groceries that he bought. This is what was purchased:
- One bag of sour cream and cheddar chips
- One bag of barbeque chips
- One bag of regular tortilla chips
- One bag of french onion Sun Chips
- One can of pizza flavored Pringles
- One box of cereal (his favorite kind)
- One bag of peanut M&M's
- One loaf of wheat bread
- One box of oranges
Along with a couple frozen pizzas, that was it.
What a helpful guy!
I just had to laugh because this is totally how he shops. Whatever looks and sounds good is what he gets, and that is all. I guess chips were looking pretty dang good to him.
Maybe grocery shopping just isn't his calling in life. I can accept that.
Looks like I will be making a stop at the grocery store on my way home tonight.

That is EXACTLY how Steve grocery shops. They could be friends.
Wow that is too funny! Chris does that a little but he gets the main staples(milk, eggs, bread, cheese) with it at least ha ha
Such a guy for ya! That is too funny. I hope you enjoy all the chips. :)
I never let Pete go to the grocery store because that is exactly what happens every time!!
I am so just laughing my head off! At least he put it away. If Bryant goes its only with a list and he still doesn't get everything and it always ends up on the floor in the kitchen even if I am not around. At least it gets done though!
I love this. This is exactly how Brad shops, too! We finally made a deal that he wouldn't go grocery shopping without me because he'd bring home far too many goodies.
As like everyone else's comment this is how my husband would shop as well. Sometimes we go to the store together, but then our grocery bill doubles. Oh well...I enjoy the occasional "go to the store by herself" time, where I make sure to circle the store a couple times just to be out of the house a bit longer. Sad but true.
I love that! You've got to appreciate thought, right? I love that you wrote that you were trying not to sound whiny. I have to make a conscious effort at that too. :) And Ben gets cranky at the grocery store too. Gotta love it.
I wish pregnancy didn't make me leave words out of my sentences. Sorry.:)
Soooo funny!!!! Gotta love men!
And how is it that Carson eats those things but is still an amazing runner? SO UNFAIR!
That must be a guy thing because that is exactly what jess would bring home. In fact we have all of those kinds of chips at our house right now.
Too funny! Guys are something real special aren't they?!
I was laughing so hard at your list that Shane thought I was crying. That's hilarious!
