[quote=Anonymous]Seriously... think about what your au pair normally eats. Mine would be something like - Breakfast: cereal and milk every morning - Lunch: eggs, cheese, lunch meat, bread, easy microwavable stuff like Hot Pockets - Dinner: whatever we make or leftovers, so harder to estimate - Snacks/dessert: chips, fruit, ice cream, which some families not even offer because "junk food" There's no reason why we wouldn't have everything on hand except for dinner, which she could easily make from rice/pasta/meat from the freezer/etc. So, if I were nice, I'd give her $10/day for dinner which is a cheap fast food dinner or subsidizing a nicer restaurant meal. But honestly, that's optional. She chose to stay home during the week instead of making her own travel plans. You could get a few frozen pizzas, frozen lasagna, etc and she'd be fine for dinner too.[/quote]
