You might be from a large family if:

The leather shoes you are wearing now were passed down from your father and 4 brothers; resoled with a rubber patch cut from an old bicycle tire that is held in place with cobbler’s glue; and has butcher’s string for shoe laces.

Good times.

-Covid restrictions, one pack of pasta per grocery shop. One pack of 10 eggs per grocery shop. One pack of flour per shop etc. So large families often had to split up and shop separately to buy enough for one meal. It’s funny now but at the time it was frustrating.

We have two fridges and three freezers, but we never thought of naming them. That's a great idea. Come to think of it, they might actually get temporary nicknames when they don't work right.
