Are there foods that your family just loves? Either at home or at a restaurant? What does grocery shopping look like in your world?

There are several staples in our diet at the Owens household and several places that we love to go eat. There are certain stores that I frequent and there’s the occasional trip to Costco to stock up. There are recipes that we love…and a few that some of the kids would rather do without. Every trip to Ikea for my mom and I and the kids always ends up with an ice cream cone at the end of the trip. What does food look like in your world? Are you documenting it?

Here are some tips and ideas on how to document the foods that your family eats:

• Do you meal plan? Take a photo of your meal plan for the week, where is this plan displayed?
• What does grocery shopping look like for you? Do you go once a week for a big haul or several times a week. Do you frequent one store or many?
• What kinds of foods do you prepare at home? Do you have special recipes that your family just loves?
• Who does the cooking? Does everyone pitch in? Are some people in your home the breakfast makers or the bakers? What different cooking roles exist in your home?
• What do snacks look like?
• What does your refrigerator look like? Or your pantry? How are you storing food? Do you have a food storage?
• What restaurants do you frequent? A family favorite?
• Is there a special treat that you always get when you go to a certain place or participate in a certain activity?
• What does the food look like at celebrations?
