The arrival of a new baby is glorious. But let’s face it, they’re needy little suckers. Fresh out of the gate, so to speak, they require it all. And our friends and family are always there to bear gifts of teensy clothing, car seats, the boatloads of equipment that a little person requires, and the all important, diapers. We dote, we ooh and aah at that precious little miracle. Their every whim, their every need is speedily met.
But what about Mama?! She has needs too and she’s most likely so busy tending to her little bundle that she has completely spaced out on herself. That whole pregnancy brain thing, it’s known to linger a little while longer. So what does that Mama need? She needs food. Plain and simple. And better yet, she needs someone else to make it for her. A well nourished Mama is a happy Mama and a happy Mama leads to a happy family. Sort of like that line from Jerry McGuire – “A happy wife means a happy life.” – or something like that.
Have fun shopping for all things cute for that baby and when you bring it on over, include a little lunch for Mama. She needs her strength and to Garnish it up is as easy as 1,2,3!
Start with a squat bio pak container. It won’t leak, can be microwaved and was designed just for this task. Insert lunch of choice. Lay the bio pak container in the center of an ever-so-cute tea towel, which she can use to drape across her lap so she doesn’t have to leave her comfy chair.
Bring the sides together like you’re wrapping a present…which you are!
Tie the corners in a knot and tuck disposable wooden cutlery into the knot, because really, do you think she wants to do dishes?!
Trust me when I say, if you bring Mama food, you will have a friend for life.
Garnish + Enjoy
