I often take recipes that call for a 9x13 pan (i.e. lasagna) and split it into 2 8x8 pans. I freeze one before cooking it for a later date. An 8x8 pan of something is perfect for a family of 4 with 2 little ones. I will also make big pots of soup and freeze half of it. <br /><br />Another money saving tip: buy canned pears or peaches and puree them for baby food. And I always used the big jar of regular applesauce for the babies.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17828799661210751800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29179620.post-85442982689868282382011-03-08T13:35:28.515-06:002011-03-08T13:35:28.515-06:00Jessie!

Best to throw those suckers out.<br />You and jess should talk. she is just at the beginning of the baby food thing, but so far has made all of reid's. She will be happy to see someone else did the cost analysis and came up with "are you kidding??"<br /><br />And affording to feed boys? One of my best friends from ND had 4 stappin' young men, football players all, and it was by far cheaper to go to all-you-can-eat buffets than pay for enough burgers and fries to fill 'em up. She was/is a great cook and if at all possible, they all came home for lunch, too, so she fixed three big meals a day, not counting all the baking she did. (she is responsible for the awesome sugar cookie recipe we have, if you are familiar with that.)<br /><br />Happy motherhood,<br /><br />Carole<br /><br />Oh yeah. one year, ron and his brother each went through three sizes of jeans in one school year. That was back in the day when you went school shopping just before school started and you didn't get new clothes or shoes until the next year. Ron's mom said they just about bankrupted the families those years with the new jeans/new shoe requirements.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29179620.post-46284343009968980002011-03-07T18:34:29.173-06:002011-03-07T18:34:29.173-06:00Guess you don't remember with I did this for y...Guess you don't remember with I did this for you. <br /><br />Radishes?
