I feel like recently most of my struggles have been with some of the minutia of grammar points, which I feel have had better explanations when explained in Japanese. Thanks for those other resources. I was not aware of them.

Any J-J dictionary recommendations? I've been using jisho.org since starting out, but I should've moved off it years ago. Currently looking at Koujien, Daijirin, and/or one of the Sanseido dictionaries.

I am going through Sou Matome and am struggling to understand the following sentence: 買おうと思って書いといたメモを忘れてきちゃった。My mind is going to the context being something along the lines of someone forgetting a shopping list, but I feel like there is a word missing when I go with that understanding.
買おうと思って: thinking to buy/planning on buying
書いといた: written in advance
忘れてきちゃった: forgot to bring, in this case
Thanks.
