The shopping list is something I got from Town and Country when they were still a vendor. You might want to check with them, they might have something similar. Basically it's a pad with lines on it with the PC logo and it has a magnet attached to the top that I stick my business card to. I write down the ingredients on the list and I have never been to a hosts house where the list was not on the fridge!
