Buy stock in disinfectant products!
Okay, maybe it just seems that we are using that much.
In order to curb the outbreak of giardiasis, we are disinfecting the entire house. Namely anything that might go into a child's mouth. And also anything that a child might touch, since that child might then put their hands in their mouth. So, in a word, everything.
For those of you coming to the party, you really don't have to worry about catching this parasite. Just follow these rules:
1. D0 not put random objects into your mouth.
2. Do not share food or drink with the children.
3. Avoid handling dirty diapers (as if you needed a rule for this).
4. Wash hands well and often.
Really, if proper hygiene is used, this infectious protozoa is not very contagious. It's just that children tend not to use proper hygiene and tend to put things in their mouths a lot. It can only be contracted by direct ingestion of Giardia Lamblia cysts (well, there's one other way, but I really don't want to think about it), the important thing is that it is not an airborne pathogen.
More info later.

I voted at the $40-50 range for groceries, though it was in an unscientific estimage. When I lived alone, I'd say I spent more in the order of $70 a week in groceries. I ate well.
