Fun lists are the things you want to remember later, like when you’re trying to decide where to go out to dinner or when you’re trying to find something to watch on TV. They are definitely running lists that you keep adding to and they’re good to keep handy so when someone tells you about a great book or movie on Netflix you jot it down so later that night you’re not wishing that you could remember what they said.
So, you’re probably thinking, where am I supposed to keep all of these lists? If you prefer a pen and paper, just grab a small notebook just for your list. Another idea I like to use is the Notes app on my iPhone. That way it’s always at your fingertips when you need it,

It can be easy to get into a rut of going to the same place over and over. Why not make a list of the new restaurants that just opened or the ones someone suggested? Having that list at your fingertips will give you food for thought. (see what I did there 🙂 )
The Recipes I Need To Try List
