does anyone like to make a homemade meal anymore?

I've noticed this day in age that everything is made to be fast! It's either fast food or pop it in the microwave and have a meal in minutes! Whatever to making something with ingriedents that you actually bought and put together? It seems we have become a soceity of convience and with that we sacrificed taste. Whether it be fast food or something pre-cooked we are giving our families a meal loaded with salt, fat and low on taste and variety. I have found a soooo many recipes that can as little as 30 minutes to prepare and voila you have a real home cooked meal. You can even do it for as little as one person with left overs for another meal. I know our lives are a lot busier than our parents were, but I believe we still can squeeze in enough time to prepare a meal for our families, even if they have to eat in shifts. Think of the memories you may have of your mom's home cooking and don't you want that for your kids? Do you really want your children to remember mom going to McDonald's for dinner?

I make 3 meals a day. I am a stay at home mom so I have more time than most others. I love to prepare my families meals. I can not remember the last time we ate out. There is too much garbage in the instant/ready-made meals. YUCK!

Yes, I like to make home meals the fast food resturants are bad for the human body and the good resturants are not cheap.
