Try to account for everything: nappies, baby food, clothing, healthcare, and other essentials. Look for Second-Hand Items Babies grow quickly and outgrow their clothes and gear just as fast.

It was so hot, humid and sunny all (long) summer long, that anything you threw in the ground would grow. I really struggled to grow vegetables there. If you have some gardening/growing/planting tips, please share them with us. Prolifically. When I moved to New England, it was a whole different story. Fun for kids and adults!

I don’t freeze food in the used bags, but do use them for leftovers in the frig. If you want to get fancy, draw, paint or sew buttons on it for eyes.

Growing up a meal was a starch, lots of meat, and a vegetable, and we wouldn’t do something like, have pasta with marina and Thai chicken on the side because they didn’t “go together.”
