What type of milk do you drink?
Whole milk! I don’t remember the last time I bought anything else.
What snacks can you not live without?
I’m not a big snacker at all. If I do have a snack it’s usually fruit or my favorite passion fruit Greek yogurt with some berries.
Top, Skirt, Bag, and Shoes Miu Miu.
What is your strategy for navigating the grocery store?
I always start in the produce section by picking up a few different kinds of vegetables and fruits. I make sure to always get some potatoes. Then I move onto protein and pick up two to three different kinds depending on what I’m planning to cook that week. Dairy and frozen things I pick up last, so they don’t melt as quickly.
Is there an item you buy every single time you shop, no matter what?
I never leave the store without parsley and lemons.
What’s your favorite aisle?
I get excited about the fresh produce section of every grocery store.
What are your supermarket rituals?
I have a list of meals in mind when going. I usually shop what’s in season. I also avoid going to the grocery store on a Sunday!
Top and Shorts Batsheva.
Are you a label reader?
I never used to read labels when I moved here from Germany, but a couple years ago I started and was shocked at all the things we consume without knowing what’s in them.
Do you write a grocery list?
Only when I’m cooking specific meals that require ingredients I usually wouldn’t buy. But I usually don’t!
What are your kitchen staples?
Milk, eggs, and grass-fed and grass-finished beef.
What’s your favorite grocery store?
Lately it’s been Central Market.
Sweater, Top, Tights, and Scarf Prada. Gloves Amato New York.
