Household Tips
Cooking is always cheaper than eating out and personally, Nikkie loves to cook. The only problem is, her schedule sometimes makes it difficult to cook a lot. Therefore, the first thing she does each week is plan the menu for the week. Sometimes she even plans for the month. She knows which days are going to be the busiest and plans really simple meals for those days. She plans bigger meals for the less hectic days. And she always has a quick back-up plan in case something doesn’t work.
Having meals in the freezer is also a nice way of saving yourself time if something unexpected comes up. During her pregnancies, Nikkie has always taken time to freeze up several meals prior to the due dates so that in the first few days postpartum, Scott can easily pull something out, let it thaw, and get it ready to eat.
