There is a family we kind of know about a block over from us. We know them well enough to stop and chat, and hand off hand me downs too. But not really socialize a lot with, partly because we are far enough away not to fit into that tight fit of neighbors, and partly because we really have not made a huge effort with the craziness of life.
Any way, they had a baby last week, and we wanted to do something to bless them. The only requirements were that it could not cost a bunch and could not demand time in bunches.
So I went with my tried and true method. I made them supper by simply doubling what I was making. Actually I just made a batch of my Spaghetti Sauce and portioned a meal for them (this recipe gives 3 meals with leftovers for us) and made 2 Italian Cheese Breads. So a bit of extra work, not much, no extra mess, and voila, an extra meal!
I froze both the sauce and the bread, and will deliver it tomorrow with a bag of pasta. The thought being that there are lots of meals being delivered right now, but this one will be stashed in the freezer for one of those "You have GOT to be KIDDING ME!" days. Or am I the only one who has those??? :-)

How lovely! And I totally understand the, "You've got to be kidding sort of days", especially with my very inquisitive(gets into everything) and energetic three year old. She was an easy baby, but now she is making up for it! LOL.
