Sally Robb
Briefly describe your eating habits before getting more organized?
We were trying hard to have dinner together at night, but with 6 kids, and my
husband and I both working, it had been an exercise in futility. I accomplished it only 2
or 3 times a week….and with great effort!
Tell us about cleaning out your freezer?
OY! I was afraid that some of the items had reached an age when, in another month
or two….given a little warmth, they could reach consciousness. I’m not sure what they
would say, but I’m sure it wouldn’t be pleasant….”You left us for months in the
freezing dark. I need therapy!”
Which package do you prefer order from the Studio Kitchen and why?  
The super-size, 6000 serving package…..otherwise known as the 63 prepared
serving, and then some.
What are you doing for sides?
After 6 kids, my “sides” are a little wide, but my husband says he loves me anyway….
though it may be that I am occasionally amusing, and I feed him periodically. But
seriously…..fresh salad, rice, green beans, fresh veggies etc. We have a little one
with Celiac disease so we have to be careful.
Are you using our Mealplanner or any other meal planning method?
I have no other meal planning method than the ever-useful,” I plan to feed my family
every night” method. Meaning no one wastes away, but there is an undesirable
amount of frenzied activity around 5 pm….think, off to the store, unload the car, put
200 lbs of groceries on the counter (too dangerous on the floor, given the ravenous
dog situation), throw things together, have dinner ready while looking casual, and well-
prepared (making sure to wipe beads of sweat from upper lip…..maybe even applying
a hint of lipstick…though that could be going over-board)
Do you eat together as a family?  
We are a large family group who sometimes eat together…..if I can fend off the young
male members, who will eat anything, at anytime, that doesn’t eat them first. My
success is sporadic at best.
What impact is The Studio Kitchen's food having on your life?
Surly teenagers, and discombobulated evenings. Actually, I really believe that eating
together as a family is critical….it forges us into people who know each other, and
move in each other’s lives on a level deeper than “functional utility”, as St. Thomas
Aquinas said. Each dinner doesn’t have to be group therapy….just laughing with
each other, and describing the mundane things of our lives works to weave us
together. You go to bed feeling attached to each other…not distant, and unknown.
Anything else you wish to communicate?  
I have been grateful for what a seemingly simple thing has done for our daily lives.
We are just a regular, middle-class family. If anyone had told me a few months ago
that I would be receiving two weeks worth of dinners delivered to our door, I would
have guffawed (still a word used in small circles, I understand), saying with some
vigor, “That is for rich people…people who have nails, and dress like the “after“in
“What Not to Wear“….careful hair, casual chic with non-matching, but fabulous
handbags that have Names. They don’t drive minivans be-strewn with fruit roll-up
wrappers, and various and sundry socks, and look like the “before“ in “What Not to
Wear“. But I have seen the light, and am walking with deliberation towards it. It is no
more (or not much more) expensive to have you prepare the meal, and I have more
time to be generous in other ways to my wonderful, sprawling family. It has been a
blessing. Though I find that word grossly over-used, in this case it is warranted
because it has led to a tangible good….more time together, sitting at a table, enjoying
a lovely meal, and remembering why we are so crazy about each other. That is a
“blessing” if ever there was one!
