Moms, my new neighbor had a baby. Any ideas what I should cook for her? I’m really good at soup but I feel like that could be odd. OR thinking something healthy like and eggplant lasagna (no pasta).

Anything she can reliably eat with one hand. Quiche was a favorite that a coworker brought for me.

Yes to quiche. I had a baby recently and my mom made me quiche once a week. Easy to prep and eat and so filling!

I don’t know if I wanted healthy as much as hearty when I had mine. Maybe a regular lasagna? Or cookies. :)

Poor momma is going to be surviving on too little sleep and trying to care for a Brand baby. Echoing VP who suggested something she can have one-handed. Hearty foods are good- lasagna, eggplant parm, casseroles (does anyone still make those?)...

Is she breastfeeding? Lactation cookies were a godsend for me (and delicious/hearty). Beyond that, some awesome snacks were a staple for me - carrot/celery sticks and babybels.

I don’t cook so can’t help here but just wanted to say - that’s so nice of you!

Yes, it’s so nice. When I had mine I was living in a smaller city and it was common for people
to sign up to bring food to the new parents. Our closest friend set it up and others signed up for different days. We had food for weeks! It was great. Perk of a smaller community I guess.

Something that could be frozen/saved and is good reheated. I second a regular lasagna with a good loaf of bread :)

And soup could be good too!

My sister made me minestrone soup when I was postpartum and it was great. Some was eaten straight away, some in the freezer. Very easy to reheat. Such a nice idea to cook for your neighbor 💕

So my fiancé and I are having a microwedding in Rocky Mountain National Park next year, and we’re working with an elopement planner.
She sent over a sample ceremony (intro, sweet poems + passages to be read, and example vows), and we read through it last night. I was reading it out loud while my fiancé made dinner, and it just hit me that this is really happening. I’m just really happy that I found someone who is willing to take a vow to spend his life with me and I’m so excited for that day :)
