[quote=Anonymous]As someone who has been on the receiving end of a loving meal train from some wonderful people, keep in mind the size of the family you are cooking for. Don't send over enough food to feed a household of 3 teenage boys. Think in terms of one meal plus lunch leftovers per eating adult. Little kids eat half portions, and might not eat more than a bite if the meal is not bland or simple. Teen boys eat a ton, but teen girls eat anywhere from very little to normal adult portions. If you are cooking for 2 new parents, don't send over a whole lasagne or casserole. No one wants a fridge full of food that they will never be able to finish and now have to throw away because everyone is dropping off a 9x13 tray of pasta and an entire loaf of bread each night.
