Just learning Python and have a project to create a weekly menu and a
shopping list from the menu.  
Question:  How should I set up the data?  I'm looking at maybe 70 menu
items and maybe 1000 items for the shopping list.  I need to be able
to maintain each item also.

I agree with Mr. Holden. It's a perfect exercise for using Python with
sqlite3.

And the nice thing about this documentation is it has plenty of good
examples:

Good luck,

Thanks guys. While shopping today I've thought of a few more columns
for my data so my first item will be building the 3 DB tables and a
way to populate them. Since this was intended to automate what I do
on a weekly basis, I didn't think about adding recipes since I know
what I need for the family, but that's a good touch.

Item 1. Build 3 db tables
Item 2. Build app to populate tables.
Item 3. Build app to read tables and print lists.

Anything else?
