It is the simple little snippets of life that are so rewarding. Just like you re-reading your Grandfather’s shopping list. I read other nostalgic lists I have saved. One is a list my daughter wrote when she was eight or so:
Burie Fred ( she rescued and cared for a bird that hit the living room window and died later)
Clean room
Go to movies
I also tearfully read poetry notes of my departed Aunt from time to time. Thank you for bringing these dear sweet memories to the fore.
Thank you for keeping your Grandfather's shopping list. It touched my heart and I immediately became tearful. The same thing. happened to me when my brother died suddenly a couple of years ago. I had to clear his house and I found his list left on the table for the morning with his money and his personal things. It broke my heart. I have still have them. Suddenly, your words brought it all back.
So delightfully random. Thank you! Keeping your grandfather's shopping list. Such a brilliant, sweet treasure.
Love! Immediately started listening to the Japanese bossa nova playlist
It’s such a mood xx
Me too. A perfect accompaniment to ease my Monday morning workload.

I love year end book lists and finding connections to books I’ve read too! Yours is a great list!
Thanks 💙
Your list of favourites reads like a poem.
Thank you India!
As someone who writes about pop culture and thus does a lot of lists, I love this soulful way of looking at them.
