Zoe Foster Blake has the fridge of dreams, people. The FRIDGE OF DREAMS.
I’m not even joking.
See for yourself.
Even Zoe Foster Blake knows she has the fridge of dreams, “Look!” she cries. “It’s a bloody TV ad fridge.”
True, it does look suspiciously like the fridge that starred in the latest Westinghouse commercial.
Yes, Foster Blake has a fridge stocked with prepped meals by a Australian company Youfoodz to make life a bit easier with husband, Hamish Blake away interstate this week.
And that, my friends, is smart with a capital S. Here’s why. The best piece of parenting advice going around is this: Get as much help as you can.
Foster Blake ended her post asking followers to recommend their best food cheat. And that they did. The comments section is now packed with recommendations for providers of prepared meals.
Watch: Zoe Foster Blake shares her best ever beauty tips. Post continues after video.
For what it’s worth, if you’re in Melbourne, I’m a big fan of Let Lulu, myself. But one Senior Editor at Mamamia has just told me, “I saw Zoe’s shout out to YouFoodz last night and got sucked in. I’m trying them next week.”
This savvy senior editor isn’t the only one high fiving Foster Blake for her fridge of champions.
Lina wrote, “Clever Lady.”
Carly said, “totally get it, sometimes you just gotta do whatever makes the week a little easier!”
Poppy chimed in with, “My hubby does FIFO so I live on massive batch meals pre-portioned into Tupperware dishes. Do I get sick of chicken soup after 6 nights straight? You bet my lazy, chubby little heart I do, but not as much as I’d get sick of cooking and washing up every night!!”
Because, as Foster Blake herself says, “cooking can suck a doz.”

Am i wrong for being a tad sick of this worship of famous celebrities' wives/fitness bloggers/models who are mums...blah blah blah! I had no idea who zoe was a month ago and now i know whats in her fridge, what underwear she wears (claims to) and no doubt she is the expert on baby hacks, housework, fitness, make up etc. im sure she's lovely and its not against her but im sick of seeing these instagram happy perfect people who are so 'humble' and 'down to earth' and 'accessible' it majes me want to puke. I dont want to see pregnancy bumps from perfect fitness bloggers are hear about supermodels who breastfeed in waterfalls or see some flawless skinned celebrity wife's fridge. Those preprepared meals are not cheap. My lunch is the $1 pasta from safeway with tomato sauce, cos i have no time either but dont have a zillion bucks to buy fancy fresh preprepared meals cos life so busy. How bout some actual real life ppl who dont have white bench tops and perfectly cleansed pores. Yawn.
You are not alone. I only heard of her husband marrying, didn't really know who the partner was! She could be a real sweetie but to be honest I don't seek out food advice from someone who is a "celebrity-wife-mum". Since she showed us her fridge I say : good on you - if it makes you happy do what ever makes your family run smoothly. I can't be a devotee. For some simple reasons:
1) parenting is hard but not impossible - cook meals. It is a life skill. yep done it with my hubby travelling away LOTS, little people all about. Chaos, busy, tiring but not impossible.
2) plastic - all plastic - microwave food is not my thing
3) money - if you can order in pre paid foods - I am not in your tax bracket.
My neighbours order prepaid food and I am sure the popularity is growing. For me, I teach my kids to shop, cook from scratch and clean their own homes. For some reason they think that they can pay other people to do these things????
Good luck to this woman and her awfully cute baby!!!!!
Lol, so very true! Thanks for giving me a much needed laugh today!
My fridge has a few nights worth of these this week too! We are currently renovating, and have no oven or stove for the next 2 weeks. At $10 per meal these are really tasty and healthy and good value for busy weeks or when life gets crazy! It wouldn't be a regular thing for us, but for crazy weeks-hells yeah! The biggest problem is working out which ones to order-they all sound so good!!
