Ask your family what their preferred meals are. Everyone can sit around the table and quickly decide what they would like, or they can write it on a board before a due date each week. While you shop, don\u2019t forget to grab a bottle of chamomile eye drops from your nearest store. You can also alternate the meals by choosing one person per day of the week. That day, the family eats what that family member has picked. Of course, always being mindful of individual needs, allergies, and cost.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-1ab128c elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"1ab128c\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-636e1e6\" data-id=\"636e1e6\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b797960 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b797960\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The Small Stuff<\/h5>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-25ca7da elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"25ca7da\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f2cc9f3\" data-id=\"f2cc9f3\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4f284b6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4f284b6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t forget the little but crucial things such as seasonings, sauces, spices, snacks, and drinks.
