A Christmas shopping list.
Vibrant pink paper.
Some seasonal Christmas food here. Parsnips, nuts, ingredients for trifle. Even Xmas is listed as an item.
The list is from Morrisons yet some items have been specified to be sourced from Costco, Salmon and Pepps (peppers?).
This person enjoys an abbreviation, mushs = mushrooms, pots = potatoes, rasps = raspberries.
Morrisons, December 2022
Lovely red pen on a plain piece of paper makes this list stand out from the crowd.
Not a major shop but rather a few required items. It looks like lasagne and salad was on the menu. Some fruit is listed and also shower gel.
Lidl, Chard, 8th August 2021
She wrote Maris Piper, he was confused or thought she was too pernickety and appended ‘spuds’? Different hand?

Sweet Potatoes, strawberries 450, double cream, meringue nests, white vinegar, cannellini beans.
The 450, probably meaning grammes, after strawberries suggests a recipe called for a certain quantity. Eton mess maybe?
