Commas and Lists

Some times the lists in sentences can get pretty long.


  My mom went to the store and bought pizza, oranges, ice cream, bread,
  eggs, turnips, carrots, and ham for our family to eat.

In an example like this it might be better to just write something like this.

  My mom went to the store and bought a lot of food for our family to eat.

However, commas make it possible for you to include long lists in your sentences like this:

  We visited Maine, Vermont, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia, 
  Kentucky, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas on our trip
  last summer.
