All the Basics
FOUND by Inge Surya in Salt Lake City, Utah
Found this at the Smith's Foods. I loved that  maxis is smacked in between the bacon and lunch meat.

The bottom part of the list appears to be for the actual grocery store, but odd that beer wouldn't be under the "liquor store" heading. Also, I wonder was the "D batteries" are for?!?!

Hum...I would have thought that crackers and squeeze cheese would have been the snacks. I guess to this guy they must be staples.

My only thought on this is, why isn't there any sort of liquor on the list of things to buy from the liquor store?!

maxis = maxi pads
I would guess this was written by a woman as her To-Do list for tomorrow night's big camping bash. Still can't figure out the "mantels" (capes? fireplace ledges?)

mantels for the Coleman lantern-- they are little fragile, woven sock- like deals

Thank gawd for the salad, after two kinds of cheese, bread, potatoes, bacon fat and "snacks," she'll need some severe roughage. Looks more like a picnic or camping trip than a holiday party... no cheese ball.

Wish I was invited to the camping/picnic/holiday thingy :/

Liquor store is its own category not the destination - go to liquor store, then get the other stuff - but it must be important being first on the list and all. because it is underlined I think it is the part of the list that Tom is doing because he would not buy her maxis for her.

It's nice to see someone else with their priorities in a row. Except "squeeze cheese" would probably be parmesean or something on my list.

On a side note, I can easily understand why "beer" goes in the grocery side of the list - have you ever compared prices at the grocery store to prices at a liquor store. You save a bundle buying beer with your food!

MMMM....Squeeze Cheese. Damn godd, no matter what anybody has to say. Especially with Ritz Cracks!! Don't knock it till you've tried it!!

Dude, I've tried it and this is me knocking it:
EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW! But different strokes for different folks, I suppose... enjoy your squeeze cheese, my friend.

It looks to me that since 'Tom' has a period after it, it is most likely an abbreviation for tomorrow... maybe she's going to the liquor store tomorrow and is doing the rest today?

i knew this list was from utah before i had even finished reading it. "liquor store"--totally utah, probably raised there. going camping. "yeh, we're just goin up the canyon ta echo; gotta get some mantels fer the lantern."

I think the top of the list is things that Tom has reminded her to get. Don't you know it pisses a man off if you forget the important stuff, i.e. the alcohol and survival items?

Since "Tom, liquor store" is underlined at the top, maybe she is going to send Tom to buy the booze while she lays in the rest of the supplies?

Let's hope that "salad" means more than just iceberg lettuce--if this list is written in order of priority, they "don't eat right" as the old vitamin ads used to say! OK, so they're going camping, but fruit is portable!!

Squeeze cheese... is that a command or...?

it's funny- they must be getting beer AND some hard liquor or wine; they're getting junk food- not to be confused with snacks!! haha- when i write snacks on my list it means I'll see what they have while I'm there!

Mantels would be the things for the lanterns that burn - sorta like a wick but not.

Liquor store is not a heading but an item on the list. The person reading it knows what the writer wants. (he better if he knows whats good for him as my wife might say in a joking manner)

You're going to get all that at a liquor store?

Got a lot of salty foods on that list for someone who's having her period...

The beer is separate from the liquor store because you can't get liquor from the grocery store in Utah...but you can get beer. Anything else is bought at a state-run liquor store. Fun laws. :)

Not today but yesterday in desposed
MJ.. I agree that "tom." is for tomorrow.. But it is ironic that you said "tomorrow" has a period after it.. and she is buying maxis...had to laugh that
