For those of you just joining in, Random Questions are brought to you by my friend Randa Kay at Just RK. Have I ever mentioned that I love Random Questions?

My answers to these random questions are below the starry line. Feel free to leave your answers in the comment section of my blog or on your own blog, just let us know so we can come and read your answers!

1. How do you shop for groceries? Is it a family event? Always the lady of the house? Or is it the guy's job?
2. Women, does your guy go clothing shopping with you? Guys, what's your feeling about it?
3. Does Daddy have any preference about what the kid(s) wear? Hairstyles/hair length?
4. When you get home from the grocery store, do you rotate your canned items or others that you have duplicates of? (Like if you bought green beans but you still have a can in the pantry, do you take the oldest can out to put in the front to be used first?)
5. What about your parents? How do they shop? Do you see a generation difference?

1. It’s sort of random in our house depending on the need. We often do major trips together, with all three of us going, but if we’re pressed for time one or the other will stop on the way home. Because we both work, we don’t see this as a gender issue.
   
2. We don’t set aside time to actually clothing shop….it just occurs, usually when we least expect it and Adam is frequently there. He is my best critic and is awesome at picking stuff out. I do also like to shop alone though and sometimes with friends…depends on my mood.

3. Adam definitely has an opinion on clothing and hair for Kabe, but we pretty much agree on it, which is great.

4. Food goes into the cupboard, but isn’t usually rotated…by the time we get around to purchasing more stuff, it’s usually bare in there and there isn’t a need to actually rotoate. =)

5. Both of our mom’s are stock-pilers and most-likely a rotaters. Thank the Lord my MIL doesn’t get the internet…she'd most likely shudder at this post. =)
