For a few months now, our family has joined with eight or nine other families in making meals for one another. The way it works is that once per month, each family makes nine or ten (depending upon how many families are participating) frozen meals. Then they meet at one of the houses and swap meals. So you spend a couple of hours per month preparing a whole bunch of meals (all the same), then you give them away. But you get a whole bunch of different meals in return.<\/p>\n

Last night the swap was at our house. At the swap, people not only swap meals, but also rate the meals they ate the previous month. That way folks know whether they should make something again. Ideally, people get two or three meals that “work” and they just rotate them from month to month. One other cool thing they’re doing this month is they’re going to make extra meals and donate them to the local Love, Inc<\/a> office…<\/p>\n

Anyway, Amy and my sister and a few other friends started the group and now another group is forming and my guess is that at least one more will begin before too long.<\/p>\n
