30 Meals in One Day Review, Giveaway, and Discount Code

One of the big items on my to-do list before the new baby gets here is to get my freezer stocked up with some meals that I can pull out on busy days.  I did that when I was pregnant with my previous child, and it was nice not to have to cook for a while after she was born.  A friend and I got together and cooked all the meals, but there were a few things about our cooking day with which I wasn't totally happy.

Since neither of us had ever done any freezer cooking before, we decided to use a popular site that plans out a freezer cooking day each month with all the recipes, shopping lists, and instructions.  It seemed like a great idea.   Until we started eating the meals.  Some of them were great!  But others?  I hate to admit that I threw quite a few meals into the trash because they were that gross.  I vowed I would never do any freezer cooking again that was based off of someone else planning my recipes for me.

I Got Cheap Gas at MurphyUSA

Over the weekend, hubby and I had to go to the next town over to get some last minute things before the baby is born.  Since gas is usually cheaper there, we fill up before we come back home.  MurphyUSA usually has the cheapest gas, especially when you consider their gift card promo.  With this summer's promo for $.10 off per gallon when you use a gift card it was by far the best deal. 

 The price of gas before we left our town: $3.65

Our price at MurphyUSA after we used our gift card - $3.49
