How many times have Moms (and Dads) heard this from their children–day after day? Mom, what are you making for us? Parents everywhere work hard to provide their families with three hot squares every day.
When you have small children, they have no idea the effort and planning that goes into each meal, not only daily, but weekly and monthly! They are too young to appreciate just how hard Mom really works to master this task.
How many heads of household know how much the family breakfast costs per plate? How much is that bowl of oatmeal—twenty-five cents? Fifty cents? People should be able to calculate the cost of each serving if they pay close attention to their total monthly food budget. If not, here are a couple websites that may be of help- Meals Matter or Mommy Savers.
Having the ability to control the grocery budget and organize a family meal is a virtue that is slowly being lost from one generation to another. When a family does have total control, it can be the difference between making the next mortgage payment or not.

A penny saved is a penny earned.
