Showerthought: My bullet journal's grocery list caused a salad showdown

I wrote 'romaine' but my brain read 'ramen' when shopping. Let's just say my lunch was crunchy in all the wrong ways!

Last Thursday my own list had cilantro where it should've said parsley... my homemade salsa turned into a weird soapy herb disaster. The handwriting in those journals is half the problem, I swear mine looks like a doctor wrote it after three cups of coffee. Makes you wonder if we should just text ourselves these things instead. Anyway, my whole dinner was ruined and I had to order pizza.

Honestly the soapy cilantro thing is a real genetic curse. But if your handwriting is that bad, why even keep using the journal? Feels like you're choosing the hard way on purpose.

My grandma's recipe card for lentil soup once had 'cumin' written so poorly I bought 'curry' instead. The soup tasted like a bad takeout experiment, and we had to eat peanut butter sandwiches for dinner. She still insists her handwriting is fine, but we all know it's a secret code at this point. Maybe we should just take pictures of recipes and save ourselves the trouble.
