mominthemaking14 you know I'm onboard for all the outsourcing! I had a gtg with the neighborhood mom's, they all sah and do everything including cutting the grass. I've never touched a lawn mower and don't plan to! I've got the cleaners, lawn mowing and landscaping, and now food delivery, one day I'll have time to do more myself. But for now, every little bit of help is worth it to me. I'm lucky I have the ability to do it.
Yes!! I forgot you outsource as well. Tell me about food delivery did I miss that? We do a chef twice a month and it's working so far.
We've been doing schwans, you've probably seen their trucks before. I order on their app and then the delivery guy brings to the house every other Tuesday if I order that week. If I'm not home he just leaves on the porch. I left a cooler last time but he ended up putting everything in one of their reusable freezer bags and didn't charge me. Everything is frozen and just goes straight to the oven or micro. Super quick and easy, some of the choices aren't the healthiest but some are and it gives me some easy options for the work week. Oh and they have yummy ice cream lol.

Hi guys! Work has been crazy again, I can't keep up. mominthemaking14 how many meals does your chef make when they come? Do they make a combo of freezer meals and other stuff?

We get two weeks worth of food so 10 meals with 2 servings. I can freeze if I want. I get to pick meals and make request. It's super easy and good.

vlagroupie Schwans looks interesting. I might try that out. Dinner/groceries are usually in H's realm since he is usually in charge of 6 pm-7:30 pm. But I think he is getting burned out, so might suggest this.
I'm feeling stretched a little thin this week. Work is crazy for me this week since I've had a bunch of client meetings and I just have stuff piling up because I haven't had enough time to sit down and think. I should try to knock some work out now, but I've also been doing bedtime by myself this because H has been working 17-18 hour days. So, I decided I'm just going to lay in bed and play on here until 10 and I'll either go to sleep or work then.

My mom got us some after the baby was born and it was a lifesaver. I don't have a referral code but I googled and found they have 50% off first order with code fiftyoff. I also get rewards each time I order to use as money off on next order.

If he likes to cook, they have recipes that utilize some of their stuff. But it gives me some inspiration jic I actually want to cook something different with what I have... www.schwans.com/products/recipes
We always got Schwan's when I was growing up. Their food has probably changed since then, but we always had personal size frozen pizzas on hand, and ice cream bars.

Lol. I currently have pecan praline ice cream cones in the freezer., they are delicious. Our neighbor growing up always had the truck out front of their house. I thought it was so weird back then but I get it now. But my mom was sah so there was always a prepared meal waiting for us. I don't know how she did it with 4 kids tho.

Everyone in our neighborhood ordered from the Schwan's truck when it came around. But it was mostly ice cream or really unhealthy frozen stuff. I just Google and it looks like they've come a long way since then. Or maybe they always had healthy stuff and my mom just didn't get that. LOL. Silver Mint bars were my jam. My mom had to keep inventory on them or they'd be gone the same day. We were only allowed to have one a day.

Definitely not now that I know I'm growing a damn sasquatch. But in July I will eat all the ice cream. Whoever is hosting in July, let's make it desserts only. LOL

I was just thinking today we should get together after the babies are born and let the toddlers run around and the babies be babies and eat and drink all the things.
I think we've had this discussion before but I would make fun of MIL to H that she would use the swans frozen pancakes when it takes 5 seconds and $1 of mix to make pancakes.

Lol. I get not wanting to make a mess with mix and cooking pancakes on the griddle. But you can also get frozen pancakes at the grocery store. So yeah some things aren't worth it, but they do have some things that I can't find easily at the grocery store.

I would not spend five seconds of my time making pancakes. I don't like them anyway, but I buy them frozen for DS. And a big no to making pancakes when that child wants to eat them eleventy times a week.
Pancakes are amazing. Have you not had good ones @sstwinkinglites? I don't think I've ever heard someone not like pancakes. 😂 Give me all the sweet breakfast foods though!

I don't think they're gross, but I don't like to eat them. I'll take waffles or french toast over a pancake every time.
