I agree with al_f's description of singletons, and I use them just that way. I have one bucket for singletons, one for purchases, and one for non-grocery coupons.

However, after some reflection, I think that singletons are actually actions of undefined or undelineated projects. While "water plants in kitchen" can't usefully (or sensibly) be broken down into smaller actions, it is part of a larger project, which could be "Keep Houseplants Alive" or "Maintain a Harmonious Atmosphere in Kitchen" or broadly "Enjoy Life" (assuming that plants in the kitchen brings you joy).

As a general rule, I find it faster just to list the singletons and get them done than to reflect on the overarching projects that they might support, but sometimes organizing the singletons into projects will cause me to think of other related actions that I want to add to the mix.
