Help Mom Solve The Dinner Dilemma: Prepared meals could be an inspired Mother's Day gift for a busy mom

REDMOND, WA - April 18, 2007 Deliciously pre-prepared dinners or baby food delivered to her door could be an inspired, Mother's Day present for your favorite, busy mom, according to "mompreurs" Kay Conley and Mischelle Davis.

"When you're the busy mother of an active family, flowers or chocolates may not be the most meaningful gift that you could receive," says Conley. "A real gift might be getting out of the kitchen as fast as possible while still feeling good about what the family is eating. With meal services like Month of Meals or Sprouts Baby Food, you can 'cater' to your family's nutrition needs without spending hours planning and preparing meals every week."

Conley is the founder of Month of Meals (MOM) a home meal replacement company that offers customers packaged, restaurant quality meals that they can conveniently reheat and enjoy at home. It is almost like having a personal chef. No planning, slicing, dicing, cooking, or messy cleanup, Month of Meals chefs and staff do all the hard work.

Last year Davis launched Sprouts Baby Food, an organic baby food service that delivers freshly made food for infants and toddlers to homes within the metro Seattle area. Sprouts offers nutritious menu plans created with organic, all-natural ingredients to provide parents with a convenient alternative to the processed baby food on the market today.

"We both want to develop smart, healthy meal solutions for busy families that are struggling to have a 'family dinner' together," says Davis. "The family dinner tradition can help develop closer family relationships and healthy eating habits. Statistics show that children who regularly dine with their family are healthier, happier, and better students, which is why this custom is so important."

These two local mothers have more in common that just the commercial kitchen space that they share in Redmond. Both are mothers of young children and understand that balancing the responsibilities of running a business and managing an active family can be a real juggling act.

The National Retail Federation's 2007 Mother's Day Consumer Intentions and Actions survey, conducted by BIGresearch, predicts that consumers will spend an average of $139.14 on Mother's Day gifts compared to $122.16 last year.

Both Month Of Meals and Sprouts Baby Food offer gift certificates.
