Gosh that sounds delicious! My grandma was an excellent cook. She had a notebook which she wrote all the holiday meals in, who was there, how much food, everything she made, etc. Pretty cool to look back on it.
I've started making freezer meals on Saturday mornings for the week ahead. Some of our favorites were chicken pot pie, lasagna, cilantro lime chicken tacos, honey glazed spiced pork chops. All from Pinterest or my recipes adapted for the freezer. Whoever is home first throws it in the oven or I put it in the crock pot before I leave. It's made week days much easier.
