How about "weekend errands"?

Also, I'm not sure that he's "not in favor of them," but perhaps he doesn't enjoy them? After all, they need to be done. He's probably in favor of having well-stocked pantry, a by-product of those errands.

Hi Grammar Geek,

I understand what you mean. It is a translation so I don't know if I am alowed to change that much if it is not absolutely necessary. But, if weekend errands are common phrase in the USA or UK, than I guess I could use it.

in favour of is a literal translation, it sounds funny in Croatian, although I am not sure it has the similar effect in English
