That’s a good point. I usually keep a few things in order. First, I make a grocery list before I head to the store and stick to it—no impulse buys. Second, I set aside a time each week to plan the next week’s meals, so I know what I need and I’m not scrambling at the last minute. Third, I keep a small pantry of staples—rice, beans, a few spices, canned tomatoes—so I can throw together a quick dish even on a busy day. Finally, I set a timer when I’m cooking and take short breaks to stretch. That way the kitchen stays calm, the meals turn out nicely, and I feel less rushed. It’s a small ritual, but it makes a big difference.

That sounds practical. I’ll keep the list short and only buy what I really need. Assigning specific days will help me remember which meal is on which night. And when I add something new to the pantry I’ll swap out an old item. I’ll set the timer as a hard stop so I finish or move on right when it rings. Thanks for the clear plan.
