FAMILY DAY
A Day to Eat Dinner with Your Children

FREE FAMILY DAY MENU

Let’s face it. When President Bush declares a National Day To Eat Dinner With Your Children Family Day, there must be a lot of families who are not eating dinner together. We just celebrated Family Day on September 22, but who is to say that everyday can't be Family Day? Here at E-Mealz we are personally and fully aware that everyone struggles with the logistics of dinner... we are no different. There are too many distractions, too many activities that serve to pull everyone apart rather than together. (If you are new to E-Mealz, try this free dinner menu for your family tonight.) 

There is growing concern over the disintegration of the family in our country. The family is where children are molded into the adults they become. Family is every child’s core source of love, inspiration and strength. There is no substitute in one’s life for the powerful impact of the family. But the present reality is that parents get caught up in their a myriad of activities and other distractions, and family time gets tossed out the window,

A recent report* brought to bear how dinnertime is the essential connecting point for families with profound results. This ten-year study compared kids who have fewer than three family dinners per week to children and teens who have frequent family dinners and found the latter are:  

• at 70 percent lower risk
• for substance abuse
• half as likely to try cigarettes or marijuana
• one third less likely to try alcohol
• half as likely to get drunk monthly
• almost 40 percent likelier to say future drug use will never happen

Compelled by these staggering facts, President George W. Bush proclaimed September 22th, 2008 as FAMILY DAY. His call went out to all people of the United States to observe this day, to reflect on the value and blessings of family and to participate in activities that strengthen those bonds. We think this call should ring out to all families every day of the year. Dinnertime gives our kids a repeated message that they matter, that they are worth the trouble to make family connection around the dinner table happen.

Since planning and shopping for regular family meals can be so stressful, we specifically created this very easy organizational tool to help families consistently make dinner  happen at home. E-Mealz.com is a simple on-line menu planning and shopping resource that provides a variety of easy weekly dinner plans, complete with a corresponding print-and-go grocery list! E-Mealz is helping busy and budget conscious families all over the country make everyday a family day.

why e-mealz?...

E-Mealz has been created to provide a kid-friendly and family-uniting meal planning resource for busy Moms and frugal family cooks. Each meal plan is based on the current sales at the grocery stores, with plan options categorized according to store and/or weight management strategy. The recipes are delicious, simple and easy to follow. Each plan is new every week and has a corresponding aisle-by-aisle grocery list. Almost every week includes a crock-pot recipe and easy dinner ideas. There are meal plans for two people, for a low fat diet, a low carb diet, and for those who are following a point system, as well!

E-Mealz is the brainchild of Jane DeLaney. She has four children and a husband who are all picky eaters. But she is most famous in her circles for being a cheapskate. She knows how to maximize her grocery budget and beat the system. She has been known to leave the grocery store with a cart full of groceries, and the store will have given her money! (See Jane's Saving Secrets to learn how she combines the power of budget meal planning and using coupons!) She knows that debt-proof living is impossible without a budget, and the grocery budget is the hardest to manage. Jane is often heard saying, "You can't win without a plan, and poor meal planning is a MONEY PIT!" E-Mealz is a comprehensive and workable plan that accomplishes every goal you may have for yourself and your family when it comes to dinnertime.
