No because he doesn't eat that stuff. I did that when I was single. He
won't eat stuff from the freezer that he has to make himself. He mostly
either eats eggs, a sandwich or cereal for breakfast. And thankfully I
found a really good price on cereal!

I do want to make some more meatloaves but I don't know when. Currently my
chest freezer is pretty full. I am stocking up on food for him. I have a
frozen pizza and a lot of those frozen fruit bars that he likes. Luckily I
got coupons for those. I have to look for PJ's Skinny Organic Burritos at
Costco. The dietician recommended those for Angela but... I am not so sure
that they would work for the South Beach diet. She gave her a picture of
them but they don't look like they are whole grain.

My stockpile is pretty full again. Went shopping by myself at Winco so was
able to take my time and browse. Got lots of beans, rice, vegetables both
canned and frozen, some canned and frozen fruit and pasta. Some meat in the
freezer, but I mostly tend to buy meat as needed. Also lots of cans of tuna
and chicken.
