@bunsofaluminum How do you keep your salad from wilting by the end of the week?

 

[bunsofaluminum]

@rolivingwater12 I've found certain lettuces wilt faster than others. Spring mixes and iceberg both go pretty fast. Kale and cabbage last much longer.

I buy the mixes from aldi like this one. The last day they look a little sad, but they are still edible.

I also steer clear of certain veggies. Chopped pepper or cucumber don't do well over 5 days. Cherry tomatoes, shredded carrots, bacon bits, dried cranberries, and walnuts are all fantastic for prepping ahead

@bunsofaluminum Oh that sounds delicious

@angel222 I eat during nap time. It's my me time as well. If the eldest doesn't have a nap, then I'm afraid it's screen time so mum can eat and have a moment of peace.

@cristinanazario This was going to be my suggestion too. Nap time is for me! No chores, I eat and watch an adult show on my phone.

@cristinanazario Taking kids’ nap times for yourself is one of the best perks to being on call 24/7.

@cristinanazario Quite time for the older kids mine are so getting quite time we all need a break from each other during the day. Right now they are little and nap.

@cristinanazario Same here! My eldest learned not to bother me until I finnish eating, because hungry mom gets very easily irritated.
