That's a great idea Sandy. I will have to remember that when Ricky is older and out on his own. I know I would like it, I wonder if my Mom would???? She usually has a list, can you believe it....worse than a kid.

That does sound like a good idea, but not sure where we would put all the stuff to keep it cold until they go home. I've notice the grocery is selling dry ice. Would this work in an ice chest for a day or so???

Marilyn, I'm not sure about dry ice and haven't really used it, but I'd think it would work OK. Then, you have to worry if they have freezer space once they get it home. Three of mine have stand-alone freezers and always have room. The single daughter only has her frig/freezer, so we assigned one shelf in one of our freezers to her and she'd take stuff each time she came by.

That's a really good idea. I'll have to think about that for my kids. It would sure be different. I bet that your children really appreciate it.

They seemed to like it. My Hubby loves to cook, so he made a few individual things that were favorites to each kid. I make a fast and easy enchilada that they all seem to like and they can be frozen.

I really like this idea more and more. So much better than a trinket gift and much more affordable. Plus I like that there is more thought and time put into it.
