    Our four kids are grown and I can’t imagine buying groceries for six in this day and age. I fed all of us, in the ‘90’s, for $50 per week.

      Yes! Food has gotten much more expensive. When I just had Pearl and Josiah in the early 2000’s I spent about $20 at Trader Joe’s for the week. And we only bought a few things from the other stores!

    Just so you know as I'm from New Zealand we call the fruit kiwifruit not kiwi just like passionfruit isn't called just passion. A kiwi is our native bird and a slang name we call ourselves. So I say I'm a kiwi and that means I'm a New Zealander. It's no big deal but I've noticed a lot of people from other countries getting it wrong as well. I give you full points on knowing they are from New Zealand and for getting our butter. I think you would fit in well here with your chill personality. You are just generally kind people and are down to earth. 😊

      @summersharon7852 hi summer, I'm in Auckland as well. I wasn't saying it would offend us because we are a relaxed people I was just trying to explain the correct use of the fruits name. Put it this way I would not be upset if they keep calling the fruit kiwi but the generation before me wouldn't agree. I guess I can be taken out of the classroom but the teacher in me is forever.

    How does it feels to only bring 2 children grocery shopping, when you usually took at least 5 of them? 😆
    It's fun to have friends staying over! Glad that Pearl stays in contact with her old friends. That's really hard to do, she's so blessed with a long lasting friendship 🤍 Kudos to you and Marc too for still letting friends stay over, despite having so many people already in the house! 👏
