Freezer Swap...Best Idea Ever!

Since shoes with velcro...

My contribution to this month's freezer swap was Tex-Mex Chicken Fingers and Homemade Fries. I made 10 servings worth and divided it up for me and 4 of my friends, then we swap. I ended up with:

Biscuits & Sausage with Edamame Caviar
Fiesta Pork and Rice
White Bean Chili
Meatloaf and Mashed Potatoes
Tex-Mex Chicken Fingers & Fries

My friends and I do this once a month and I look forward to it every time! It helps that they are all great cooks :)

This is a great way to try new things. Plus I LOVE LOVE LOVE being able to defrost dinner. :)

This is a great idea! My roommates and I back in College (4 girls total) would each cook one night a week Monday-Thursday and cook for 4. That way we only had to cook one night a week for 4 nights of home cooked meals!! :-)

GIVEAWAY: ERGObaby Carrier! -CLOSED-

Winner I have carried my little boy in a baby carrier since he was born. I love the convenience of strapping him in and not worrying about the hassle of a bulky stroller. It's also a comfort to hold my little guy close and safe. When I had the chance to review the ERGObaby carrier, I was thrilled to try something that could extend my baby wearing days. My first test was a true one...Costco. I admit that I didn't really look at the directions when I put the carrier on in the parking lot. But I didn't need to! After one look at a picture in the user manual, I strapped my 20 pound boy in, placed my little girl in the shopping cart, and started on my way through the aisles of Costco. I immediately noticed that the carrier more evenly distributed my son's weight than my normal carrier and held my boy high so my legs weren't bumping into his. This made it significantly easier to tote him around the store. Indeed my normal trips to Costco are exhausting. But
