Question of the Day
How far ahead do you plan meals and shop for them?
I usually know what I am having for the next week. I shop once a week and like to get all the ingredients saves me going out again.

Normally 2-3 days ahead, but we sometimes deviate from the plan by eating out or something else.  ...and toetapping, thanks a bunch for posting interesting questions on this thread!  |

I don't plan the meals I make. Unless it is for a special occasion or occasionally weekends.

Question of the Day.
Do you drink plain water, and do you drink less now that it is not so hot?
Yes, I like my water plain, out of the tap. But I am not on City water, but have a Water Well, so it comes out additive free, just like fresh spring water.

Sidetrack: In Italy, tap water, with the exception of the northern mountains, is not recommended for drinking, so most provinces have a system of public fountains, where people may fill bottles and containers with good water. I remember waiting in line for 10-15 minutes in Brindisi some 20 years ago, when people were crowding up on hot summer days.

Don't think I would like waiting in lines for water, I head on over to Evian, France.

Bottled water is relatively cheap in Italy. You can buy a pack of 6 x 1.5 litres for less than 3 euros.

I drink plain water and I do tend to drink less during the day.

Do you attempt to buy products that are preservative free?
Certainly do if possible.

Yes, we do plan our meals ahead while working but when off, we decide that day. I drink about the same amount of water summer or winter.
