Thanks for visiting our channel! Hope you stick around. We live out in the midwest.

Yes here in Northern Indiana our food prices are escalating. I just shopped today & watermelon was ridiculous! Aldi it was $6 Walmart $6.50 & at Meijers it was $9 😳😲 I was in sticker shock but I feel that way everytime I grocery shop these days. I'm just glad I don't like watermelon tho my family does but at those prices they aren't getting any lol you did get a good amount of food for that price 😊

[@homemadehomestead2985]

Wow! that's crazy! We just bought a watermelon...I think it was $5. But it is still the beginning of the season. It may get better as the season progresses. There's lots of other fruits that are still good. :P

Bananas have doubled in price here in Texas! It's crazy. I'm so thankful to have a garden for some cheaper produce and our own meat in the freezer. I havent had a Zevia in a while and root beer sounds so good! Lately, I've been on a pink lemonade Spindrift sparkling water kick...so good!

[@homemadehomestead2985]

I've never heard of Spindrift before, but it sounds pretty darn good right now. The forecast said it was supposed to be up into the 90's later on this week....I guess that probably doesn't seem that bad if you live in Texas. :s Most years, we usually don't get those kinds of temperatures here until early July. I wonder why there's such a difference in pricing of different kinds of produce, depending on where you live....

[@stephaniecoonrod5667]

Prices are going up everywhere I've seen and heard. I know I just put together a grocery order and produce and meats especially have gone up. 😐

[@homemadehomestead2985]

Yeah, at one of the local stores, I think we heard in the meat department, ribeye's jumped from $10 a pound to $17 a pound. And that's just one item. It's insane!

Look for Hershey “Simply” chocolate syrup. It will be cheaper to make more chocolate almond milk and better ingredients plus you can use on ice cream etc Also compare cost of bag citrus to Individual pieces sometimes it’s cheaper when you need several but sometimes not lol

[@homemadehomestead2985]

Oh, okay. Thanks for the tip with the fruit. Just have to keep a sharp eye, huh? That chocolate syrup sounds good. I would definitely like to find that. : )

That's a nice haul,I think a growth spurt is on the horizon for that boy of yours, eating everything he sees.

[@homemadehomestead2985]

lol. Very possible. These kids seem to grow like weeds sometimes. And there's no stopping them! :*(

[@KL-pq2vo]

Your little one was so cute helping himself to two bites of zucchini and then deciding he didn't like it.

[@homemadehomestead2985]

lol. Yeah, he's funny. At least he was willing to try it.
