Take Them A Meal

My friend Kara just recently had a baby boy.  Several of her close girlfriends wanted to organize meals to be brought over to her house to free her from the burden of having to cook while caring for her sweet little baby.  There's always so much confusion when planning something like this because you want to know what everyone else is making because you don't want to bring them something to eat if they just had the same meal two nights ago.  Plus, you have to do all this communicating via email, sometimes with with people that are outside of your circle of friends.  Well some genius out there came up with a website that does all this planning for you and it's absolutely free!  You can schedule your meal online, view other people's meals, as well as get the information about what time is best for you to drop your meal off at their house.  How convenient!  If you are about to plan something like this too, you must go to takethemameal.com.  It is so easy and saves you so much time.  I'm taking my meal over to Kara's house tonight.  It's my absolutely favorite casserole and I always request that my mother-in-law, Nancy, makes it for me on special occasions.  If you've never had No Peek Chicken, put it on your meal plan next week...you'll love it and it's super easy!
