During the summer months I always go the grocery store with a cooler in tow. The last thing I want to give my guests (or myself) is spoiled meat! I picked up this cute red cooler from Cynthia Rowley's 'Whim' collection for Target in May. It is large enough to stash most of my perishable foods, and small enough to keep in my car all the time. The friendly guys in the seafood department always give me a bag of ice, which makes it sooo easy. I can still head to the gym across the street from the grocery store for a brief workout and get back home with my food safely cooled. Now if I can just remember my cloth shopping bags, I'll have the whole system down pat!
