A few months ago my oldest son shared something with me. He said he was so grateful we taught our kids how to cook real food while they were growing up. Btw- they are all good cooks. He said when Covid hit he had no trouble finding quality ingredients in the stores but all the junk/processed/packaged food shelves were empty! He also said he knows very few people his age who know what real food is, much less how to cook. When he has friends over they can't believe what he puts together (and we aren't talking exotic, just homemade).

As I've said before my husband is the cook of the house but I cooked all the time the kids were young. I grew up with a Mom who was a wonderful cook and thrifty as well. I still have some of her Depression Era ways and am glad I do.

Patrice- the comment about the baby wipes cracked me up!!! My kids bottoms never saw those cold things lol
