I am so over dinner, honestly. There are just so few meals to make that everyone–or even the majority of us–will eat. On those days that I do actually stir my stumps enough to prepare something, I most often cook for Olof and the kids and then I eat something else entirely (toast, cereal, yogurt, cookies, whatever). It would be so much easier if they’d just stop eating meat.

What’s wrong with beans and rice, anyway?

Hey! Do you have time tomorrow (Saturday) for us to come by and take you up on that baby cuddling time? Or would another weekend be better?
Sure, tomorrow sounds great! What time?
What time for you? After lunch I was hoping. 🙂
That’s what I was thinking, too — great minds, and all that! 😀
Our house is the yellow house right after the place where we had Thanksgiving, in case you didn’t remember.
So you’re a vegetarian? Do you eat fish? I think you should just cook what you like and if they want to eat something else, they (or Olof I guess) can cook it himself! 🙂
Anna, I’m not quite a vegetarian, since I do occasionally eat bacon and turkey, but other meat is right out (and I absolutely don’t eat fish!).
Olof does do a certain amount of cooking, but since part of housewifery, my chosen occupation, is cooking, I do feel honor-bound to prepare dinner most of the time, and it’s really no fun to serve a meal that everyone else turns his or her nose up at! (To be fair, I should point out that it’s really only the kids who complain — Olof will eat just about anything and never say a word against it.) 😀
Sounds like you have a fair work distribution there. I guess that with three (soon four) kids arguing against you it can be quite tough! 🙂
So no fish? How come? Fish is so tasty and good for you!
