Le Creuset: Is it worth it?
I have many LC pieces, most of them over fifty years old, and they are great. I notice no difference in quality between the oldest and the newest (4 years old) pieces. My favorite is the 15.5 quart "Goose Pot", which reaches across two burners and is great for stock, stews and soups for large crowds. And yes, it does weigh a ton.
has anyone ever used ALMOND FLOUR?
Maida Heatter's Queen Mother's Cake and many desserts for Passover.
Eating for Two: Lasagna with Eggplant and Chard
Robin, stocking the freezer is a great idea, I did it before both my babies. Soups, stews and any kind of comfort food which makes you feel soothed will be most welcome.
While I made most of what I froze, I did supplement my stash with several of my favorite take out soups and prepared foods as I knew I wasn't going to want to waste my precious energy on going out to buy them after the baby arrived.
The only problem I had was not my digestion, but the baby's as I was nursing. The onions and tomatoes in my beloved beef stew were fine for me, but gave my youngest terrible gas.
My other tip along the same lines is to stock up on whatever toiletries, papergoods, detergent you will need for the first few months so you don't need to worry about shopping for that either.

I am a passionate cook and my husband is a passionate cook. Nevertheless, we don't like the same kinds of food ( I like healthy light, he likes heavy fatty spicy) and so we each cook separately and it works just fine. Every once in a while one of us will come home after a long day, take a look at what the other is cooking and ask to have some, but that is about it. For holidays and dinner parties we agree on what we are serving. Our kids eat mostly what I cook. What can I say? It works for us.
