Alright Thome Homers … first question!
Do you grocery shop alone? Or with your family/friend/spouse?
If, and when I can, on a hopefully sunny Sunday morning, I run out the door with my grocery list in hand all ALONE.
The feeling is nearly as delicious as the meals I have planned for the week.
Don’t think that I am heartless, but I am a gal who recharges in her alone time. At some point over the weekend, I do my best to ask the hubs and my kiddos what they’d like for dinner the following week. From there, I cater the best I can to get them as excited for dinner time as I am. 5 of the 7 nights a week I aim to eat veggie forward meals (no meat) The other two nights I relax and just eat what I’ve made for the family – so my grocery list needs to be as spot as on possible to set our week up for success!
Speaking of success, you know what was an epic failure in my last grocery trip?? Oh you know, two freaking plastic bags breaking – shattering containers all over my driveway. AND opening up my trunk only for a jug of milk to come flying out like it was happy to see me. After 3 hours of store hopping, and tackling the crowds – these two incidents nearly sent my mommy brain over the edge. Hahaha…
And then entered CleverMade.
Innovative storage solutions, to keep your life organized and structured! I try my best to remember to bring my own bags while grocery shopping, but lets face it, those flimsy cloth bags are not exactly what you want to go tossing your expensive groceries into – risking the unavoidable squish. Nothing grinds my gears more than coming home to find fresh produce turned to pulp by the time it makes it to my countertop!
These Snapbasket Collapsible Totes are a dream come true! They collapse into a flat rectangle, easy for storage in your car or closet! Oh! And did I mention they come in the most darling patterns ever? These totes are not only sturdy, with their snap technology (kind of like a pack n’ play if you can imagine) on their sides, that helps the tote stand up straight and tall!
Pop these into your cart for the best organization while strolling through the aisles.
I am so excited to bring these to our beach vacation in June!
Vegan leather straps are such a gorgeous touch to these totes, and are so comfortable to wear on the go! Max loves to fill a tote up to the brim with everything he needs for an afternoon at the playground – and it is so nice that it fits so nicely on the car floor or trunk!
As some of you may know from my Instagram stories, my goal for 2019 was to make a few simple changes in our house that would make a big impact on not only our lives, but for the planet! Utilizing these bags will be a big component to our family trying to steer clear of over-using plastic bags!
