I'm twenty and live at home with my parents. We all work until dinner time all week, and it's a real challenge to get home dead tired and try to work out a healthy, tasty homemade dinner in minus fifteen minutes. I bought that cookbook, I think it'll fit perfectly for our family at this season we're in =) God bless you and Merrit and Ruth Ann and the little one tucked inside =) åslaug Wow, I’m truly inspired here.

Even though I'm only usually cooking for myself. It can be easier to do on a budget because you can often buy cheaper in bulk and because all the ingredients are processed they do not have a chance to hangout in the fridge getting old. It also frees up time in the evening and you can always invite extra people over and not have to worry what to feed them (just get another portion from the freezer). It's a good way to do Indian, because you can mix and match and everyone gets to try a little of everything. Cooking bigger meals less often, makes so much sense.

I'm fifteen, and in charge of cooking for a family of eight. I, also, have tried the "dinner's in the freezer" on a very small scale, and I just loved it!! To tell the truth, I had completly forgotten about this, but now I know I MUST try this again on a much larger scale very soon!<br/><br/>I bet Gretchen must be stocking her new freezer now! :) This was a great article!

Right now, I do "homely arts" in my spare time (usually burning myself or messing up the recipe in any and every possible way!lol:). Though I really need more practice cooking, I hope to be able to spend more time learning this skill in the future. Cooking extra big meals is a great idea- I've always wanted to try it. It sounds like you're a great cook, Gretchen.:) Cooking is such an important and honorable accomplishment. <br/><br/>-Whitney ditto on what LM said…:) I’m really busy right now and will be even busier in the near future (as a college freshman).

Well, I know Gretchen can't see this comment, but I am impressed - and intimidated. ;) I don't think that would work for my family. We already have two refrigerators and two freezers, and they're full of ingredients. We would have no room for the finished products! I guess that's what comes of having ten people at home, the large majority of whom are teenagers. :)<br/><br/>Some day I will have to try that, however. Wow!

That's so neat that you took over the cooking, Gretchen! I wish I had the time to do that right now as preparation for marriage, but my nursing program goes through the summer and makes it difficult to practice homely arts. Well, one more year and then they'll be no homework in the evenings and on weekends and I can cook to my heart's content. :-D<br/><br/>LM Oh, I loved this article!

I'm recently married (a week after you!), and I've been praying for direction as to whether to continue my graduate degree in English or not, while also working, and making sure my husband is taken care of. I've been pondering and wracking my brain, and I think your article has at least given me something more to consider and pray about! Making meals once a month just maybe the answer!! Thanks!

My older sister Miriam did dinners in the freezer a few times, but I have as yet, not tried it on such a large scale. I've taken over the cooking, but so far only freeze leftovers, whenever I make a big recipe. I may have to do more dinners in the freezer this next year however, as I'm going to be extremely busy!
