I hope that through this group that I can learn to do that. Hershey chocolate is not going anywhere. There is enough to last a lifetime. Subject: Re: Interesting observation...To: IntuitiveEating_Support Date: Thursday, May 28, 2009, 12:55 PM

I find this super, super interesting and when I think about it, it makes perfect sense. I bet your kids enjoyed their food so much more because of this.

My father was also a cook in the Navy. He knew how to cook for 300 people. He made the best homemade Mac & Cheese. It was requested whenever there was a wedding. It was the only time that we had it homemade. Dad would always make a tray just for us. It would not even last one day. Mac N Cheese always brings back good memories. So does eating watermelon.Subject: Re: Interesting observation...To: IntuitiveEating_Support Date: Thursday, May 28, 2009, 12:34 PM

That intend is very interest. This had brought back some of my memories when I was a nanny to my cousin's 6 kids. I did exact the same thing with mac n' chesse once a week. Before I started cooking for everyone. They usual complain about too little dry or too wet from time to time. Until I started cook that and they loved it as they begged for more. Make with 8 boxes worth and sometimes add tuna to it. They did wonder how did I able to make it so good for large number of people. One thing about that my father was a chef for the navy 20 years. He was the one who taught me how to figure it out for this large of people.

Last week one night I was in mood to cook for this 8 people in house. They usual make this type of meal too greasy to the point upset my stomach so badly or heartburn like hell. SO, I told them that I will cook at that time. They love it and told me how amazed I made it so good without too much greasy. It was one of those hamburger helper.

This is a brilliant idea with the boxes. My family, and especially I, do the same thing so I will try this! Warrior > > > I just thought it was interesting to watch my kids today at lunch.
