I was thinking they had to go to separate markets for all that. That is how it can take a while to do all the shopping.

actually where I live they do have a supermarket that Walmart bought but it is very expensive so I shopped somewhere else. I think we will cook for around 75 or so...
We still have the old markets and we do much shopping there as it is much cheaper but I am thankful for the supermarkets as I remember when the first supermarket opened in Brazil many years ago...

I cannot imagine cooking for 75 people!!! I'm so glad that you are able to bless others this Christmas! I can't wait to see the pictures. Wish I were there to share the meal with you all.
