I get this trying to make reminders to add things to the grocery list with Siri. Siri always intercepts it and says "There is no 'Grocery' list. Would you like to make one?"

But I already have a grocery list and a process for it. I just want a reminder to add something to it.

Try it in two steps:

"Hey Siri, set a reminder <for {date/time|location}>."

> "Okay, what do you want me to remind you?"

"Put dingus on the grocery list"

> Done.

My brain can easily misplace the thought in that time. Especially if I run into problems or am frazzled. I usually just open a note app since it limits the risk of a memory-shattering distraction.
