Update! MORE Not So Obvious Times to Take A Meal MAY 21, 2019 / ADINA BAILEY / 
In April, I wrote about 12 "not-so-obvious" times to take a meal to a friend. Wow! The response to that post was overwhelming (in a good way) and extremely useful. I'm going to post an updated list below after I share a short story.
After reading the post, two women wrote to suggest bringing a meal to your friend right BEFORE a baby is due. Immediately, I remembered that this was done for me over 13 years ago when I was expecting my second child and hanging out with my busy toddler during the day. One of our pastor's wives showed up on my doorstep with a pan of enchiladas. I was exhausted and without a dinner plan for the evening. I can still picture the lovingly rolled tortillas with the yummy cheese on top. I imagine that my grateful husband remembers the meal as well.
Enjoy scanning through this updated list. Maybe in the future, something on this list will spark the idea to offer your friend a meal.
MORE "not-so-obvious" times to take a meal:
I hope you find an idea or two on this list helpful as you are caring for your friends or if you're considering asking for support during a difficult time. I was encouraged by the thoughtful responses because I now have more ideas for when my own friends and family members might need an extra hand or a meal to pop in the oven. If you missed the original list, you can find it here.
