I already had half of the items on my part of the list when I ran into Darren in the frozen foods aisle. He only had two things in the shopping cart and told me he was contemplating whether or not to put one item back because he thought the price was too high. As much as I adored spending time with Darren, I came to the conclusion then that future trips for groceries probably needed to be done solo. I had neither the patience nor the desire to spend an entire Sunday afternoon food shopping. Sitting at home staring at the walls seemed more appealing than roaming the aisles of a grocery store.
