Dream dinners

So, a little while back my mom's playgroup went to dream dinners. If you aren't familiar with dream dinners, it's a place where you make meals to freeze. I couldn't go that night cause one of my kids got sick. However, Julie (a woman in my group) was gracious enough to ask me to go with her to the sneek peek. I made pulled pork for sandwhiches. I came home that night and promptly froze it. Well, this morning I pulled it out and defrosted it in the fridge. Tonight, I had a screaming child and 2 toddlers that were not helping me at all! I pulled out my defrosted meal, put it in the pan and in 20 minutes dinner was served! It was great!! They even gave me bread to eat it with!!

At first glance it seemed expensive. However, after tonight with screaming children, I became a believer in the frozen meals. Tonight i would have ordered in for pizza cause I was at wits end with the kids. I didn't have time to make dinner. So, i'm going back next saturday to make about 8 or 9 new meals! YAY for making my life easier!

Hi Jessica! It's Abby, Erin's friend. Our pastor told us tonight that you had contacted him about coming to our church in Birmingham...isn't it wild how small of a world it is? I can't wait to see you guys! Let me know if you need anything when you get to Birmingham...do you know where you will be living up here yet? We love our church, we have several homeschooling families and lots of young couples.
