[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I prefer to send things that can be easily frozen like baked goods or, say, quiche. That way the grieving family can keep them til they're needed and wanted. After my father died we got so much food and it was really appreciated, but none of us felt like eating that first week or so. That was many years ago - nowadays, too, a gift card of some kind for takeout could be helpful. The last thing I want to do when I'm upset is cook and clean.[/quote] I would hate to receive food, and people will probably send stuff that I don't like. Also, my fridge and freezer are small, because our house is small and there's no way I could freeze a ton of random food. My point is: please know your audience! If you know they're the type who will appreciate food gifts, and have the space to freeze them, then sure, go right ahead. [/quote] This. I think you mean well, OP, but unless the recipients are blessed with lots of refrigerators and freezers, food may not be the way to go.[/quote]
