Tonight was one of those nights that by 5:30pm, I was too tired to walk, fold the clean laundry or make dinner. Luckily, my freezer was stocked with a bag of cooked shredded pork and a log of coconut chip cookie dough.

Our favorite meal of all time is pizza! It takes time to make pizza from scratch, so why not make 4-5 pizzas at once, bake one for dinner and place the other four in your freezer to serve later? My hero Crystal Godfrey, with Everydayfoodstorage.net and I got together a few months ago to make a video on how to make frozen pizza. What a privilege it was to be with her for a few hours in her kitchen!

After a fun but exhausting day of being a mother 4 small children, (which involved everything today from potty training, 5-6 warm bottles for the baby, diaper changing, playing dolls for 3 hours, nap time, story time, driving to and from the bus stop several times, a preschool picnic lunch, laundry, dishes, breakfast, lunch and snacks, finding and cleaning out a dead mouse behind the dryer (Eek!), rescuing a Cinderella kite from the springs of our trampoline etc…) My wonderful husband saw how tired I was tonight and decided to make dinner. Lucky for him, we had cooked rice in the freezer.
