Memo to myself, for the future.

Making a lasagna for friends who have just had a baby is very thoughtful indeed.

Making a lasagna for friends who have just had a baby, dividing it into one- or two-serving portions, and putting the portions in individual freezer- and microwave-safe containers so that some can be eaten now and some saved for later, and so that no extra dishes will be needed for storing or heating the lasagna? Is so unbelievably thoughtful that it elevates you to a whole new, previously unconsidered, category of thoughtfulness.

(And our friends get extra extra points because the lasagna was also incredibly tasty, one of the top three lasagnas I've ever had. We have good friends)

That was a very thoughtful thing they did.

Oh, I can agree. fimbrethil has made two batches of lasagna for us, in individual servings (I SWEAR Soren will get some of this batch! REALLY!) that have been amazing. (I've been eating it for breakfast as well as dinner, and enjoying it.)

Oh, portioning is great. When I had the cast on after the fourth ankle surgery and was stuck in the basement (bathroom, recliner, and TV on the same floor), I had a microwave moved down there and bought a little fridge. Everybody but one brought me 9x13" casseroles and I kept saying "Just a a couple of meals-worth, please" but I threw out a lot of food. The one brought me a salad -- boy, was I ready for that.
