Softball
What does softball have to do with meal solutions? Well, nothing....I just wanted to brag about my daughter's 6U softball tournament team.....Just being a proud mommy! The girl's got 1st place...almost had a scare....the girls had a horrible 1st inning, but they regrouped and stopped the team from scoring!! All the girls stepped up and did their part. It's amazing to see what these 5 and 6 year-old girls can do!! Kathryn is on the bottom right.

Eating Together as a Family...
Highlights from the September 2007 Journal of the American Dietetic Association
Eating Together as a Family Creates Better Eating Habits Later in LifeEating together as a family during adolescence is associated with lasting positive effects on dietary quality in young adulthood, according to researchers at the University of Minnesota.
More than 1,500 students were surveyed once during high school and again when they were 20 years old to determine the long-term effects of family meals on diet quality, social eating, meal structure and meal frequency. Participants were asked questions such as how often they ate family meals, how much they enjoyed sitting down to a meal with family or friends, if they had a tendency to eat on the run and how often they ate breakfast, lunch and dinner.
The researchers found eating family meals together during adolescence resulted in adults who ate more fruit, dark-green and orange vegetables and key nutrients, and drank less soft drinks. Frequency of family meals predicted females would eat breakfast as adults. For both sexes, frequency of family meals as adolescents predicted eating dinner more frequently as adults, placing a higher priority on structured meals and a higher priority on social eating. For women, eating together as a family more often during adolescence meant significantly higher daily intakes as adults of calcium, magnesium, potassium, vitamin B6 and fiber. Among males, eating as a family more during adolescence predicted higher intakes of calcium, magnesium, potassium and fiber as adults.
“Results of this study suggest that having more family meals during adolescence is associated with improved diet quality during young adulthood,” the researchers say. “Food and nutrition professionals should encourage families to share meals as often as practically possible.”

What a deal!
Wow! Homemade Gourmet's regular $79 Starter Kit is a very affordable way to start a new business - and this month, it's twice the value!
We recently reviewed the Starter Kit values of 24 direct selling companies. All the companies did business through home parties, and they sold everything from food, kitchenware or home décor to personal care, jewelry or scrapbooks. Here's what we found:
Only four of those companies had kits more affordable than Homemade Gourmet's $79 Starter Kit. Only one of those four sells products similar to Homemade Gourmet (and that kit was only $4 less).
Three of the companies offered "free" kits with certain size orders in the first month ($350, $500 or $1,000 retail). Homemade Gourmet's total investment is $79 plus a $200 activating retail order.
The average Starter Kit price for the 24 companies was $138.49.
The Starter Kit for many companies included few or no retail products (Homemade Gourmet's Starter Kit includes the Pantry Basics Collection valued at $84 retail).
Homemade Gourmet's Starter Kit is a great deal any month of the year, but this month, the Souped Up Starter Kit is even better. It has double the value (over $300 worth of products) and all the extra supplies a new Distributor needs to do her cook-off and a couple of Homeshows. It's a great way to get started, especially this month when people are get cozy inside their homes again and entertain.This is a ground floor oppotunity...with less then 1800 distributos there is lots of room to grow!!

Food For Thought
"Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gve up." ~Thomas Edison
Meat last longer in the freezer if it already cooked. Take 15 minutes after shopping to cook and season your meat before you freeze it.
One pound of raw chicken equals 2 cups cooked chicken (sliced, diced, chopped, or shredded.)
"A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes. " ~ Hugh Downs
"Life's most urgent question is: What are you doing for others?" ~Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Sugar Roll-Out Cookies
We started a Christmas Eve tradition a few years ago. Sugar cookie decorating party. My daughter loves to decorate cookies...what kid doesn't? We invite her cousins for a fun evening baking/decorating. I get all types of icing, sprinkles, candies, and colors and I let the kids go crazy. I even let the kids roll and pick their favorite cookie cutter shapes. I enjoy this time with my kids, nieces, and nephews every year--Can't wait to do it again!! Plus, Santa really loves his cookies!!!!
1 Homemade Gourmet® Super Sugar Cookie Mix
2 sticks butter
1 egg

1. In a mixing bowl, combine all ingredients and
stir until well blended. Place cookie dough in an
airtight container or ziptop bag and freeze for
30 minutes or refrigerate for 1 hour.
2. Prepare counter by sprinkling with 1/8 cup
powdered sugar. Cut dough in half with large
spatula, returning other half of covered dough
to the refrigerator, place first half of dough on
top of prepared surface.
3. Lightly dust rolling pin and top of dough with
powdered sugar and roll dough to 1/4 inch
thickness. Cut with cookie cutters using all or as
much dough as possible. Bake cookies for 8 to
10 minutes (shorter time with dark pans) until
bottoms are lightly browned.
4. Cool completely, *frost and decorate if desired.
If rolling out a second time, knead dough only
long enough for it to hold together, cut and

Cookies can be sprinkled with granulated
or decorator’s colored sugar before baking

September's Meal Plan
If you are a HGP club memeber and you got the bundle for the month(for September), then you want to start here....follow these tips to save more time in the kitchen! Not a member? You can still order the needed mixes and go to your 'In The Mix' e-newsletter for the full menus, grocery list, and directions. Want to have the e-newsletter sent to you the 1st of every month?

TIP: go ahead and prepare all the meat needed on day one. It doesn't take much longer to season all the meat then just 1 lb for only 1 meal. This is for meals: 1, 3, 4, and 6. You will cut down on dinner preparation time for the next meals
*you would need triple the ingredients needed to make meal 1--this includes, meat, ketchup, egg. So, go ahead and buy a pack of 5 1/2 lbs of ground meat.
Start off of by taking 1 lb of meat and brown it on a frying pan-do not add any seasonings to this. While thats cooking....get a large bowl and place the remainder of the meat. Place the other ingredients in the bowl plus triple the amount of the Old Fashioned Meatloaf-if using single packets, you would need 3. If using the pantry staple size, you would add 24 Tablespoons. Mix this all up. Then divide the meat mixture into 3 parts.Use one part for meal one-put in meatloaf pan and place in oven.
While that is baking, use another part and shape meatballs. Put these in the oven for the last 15-20 minutes that the meatloaf has left.
Then use the last part of the meat to shape into patties. You can then line the patties with wax paper and put into a gallon sized freezer bag. Make sure to lable as Old Fashioned hamburgers and today's date.
You now have meatloaf ready for dinner-or you can wrap it in foil paper and put in a freezer bag for later. While eating your dinner, let the meatballs cool. Then you place them in the freezer as well.
You will love having these meals almost done for you when you are short on time for dinner!! They will be your lifesavers! Have fun with this and let me know how it all goes!!
