Free food delivery for new moms
Need dinner delivery after your own delivery? Let's Dish!, the meal-assembly company, has an offer for new moms -- free delivery of its 8-meal DishDelivery orders for up to three months after a baby is born.
Details and rules of the offer are on the Let's Dish blog.
If you know someone who's expecting, a nice group gift might be to spring for the meals, then take advantage of the offer for free delivery of them. I know that when I had babies, all I really wanted was for dinner to be taken care of (and cleanup too!).
When my first was born, one of our favorite gifts was a big spiral sliced ham with biscuits, with a tray of fresh fruit. Whenever we were hungry and had a moment to eat, we'd grab it.
What food gifts have you received in the early days of having a baby that you liked best?

My first evening home from the hospital after having my son, my husband's mother made us dinner with instructions for my husband to follow. Then a friend made us a casserole, salad, bread and included a bottle of wine. We felt very indulged on those two nights!

We were very lucky and lots of people brought us food when we first got home. I don't think I had to make dinner for at least 2 weeks. But I think my absolute favorite was being brought real food in the hospital. My mom brought me cookies from Lexington Market, which were great for when I was starving from breastfeeding in the middle of the night :)
