food for a week

The picture above shows some parts of food that my family consumes in a week. That's for a family of six. Our diets seems quiet healthy, the fruits always take a big proportion in our weekly food spending. Since I am in host family with another Chinese girl, rice is always one part of our spending and sometimes noodles. The following are the receipts of my family food expenditure for a week. My family does weekly food shopping and we mostly go to stop& shop, which is the nearest food stores from home. And we always do shopping separately. (Long receipts is for whole family and short one is my food shopping receipts) 

Total: about $200

Meat: about $20

Grain and starchy food: about $30

Fruit: about $80

Vegetable: about $30

Milk and juice: about $40

In my family, we eat together for about twice a week. We sometimes get take out (Chinese food or Mexican food) once a week. And we eat food outside mostly every Friday. The picture below shows a meal that we eat together. And Mrs. Ryan is the one who cooks if we eat together. For the rest of week that we don't eat together, we always cook our own meal separately.

And the following is the looks of our kitchen:
