Most trips to the store were for milk, sugar, flour, spices and some canned veggies we didn't grow. Loaf bread and lunch meats were for my dad's lunch. If the other kids in the neighbor hood wanted to play a game of ball or something. And I had to help my parents with veggies. They would jump in and help until my parents would say that's enough. If offered a pbj on a leftover biscuit with home made jelly, they would run over each other to get their's first.
