What's for dinner...?Ahhh that is the absolute worse question ever asked! It's like why must we even eat! 😂
I feel bad about it some nights. I actually fixed some hamburger helper after starting this post. It looks more like something served at a daycare. Well it's a start I guess. Stephen was very appreciative of his simple meal. It's moments like this that make me really appreciate my husband. I did not want to eat it myself, yet he had seconds! Yes, I know...that is really sad, but it's true!
I know the way to a man's heart is supposedly his stomach. Well my man defiantly enjoys a good meal. I just am not the one who normally prepares it. It works for us and has worked for over 11 years. I'm interested to know how you handle dinner in marriage. Don't forget to share easy recipes and helpful tips for making dinner time manageable. Let's start a conversation!

This was such an amusing story. Thank you for sharing. The entire time I was thinking about my preconceived ideas that one if the reasons I am a great catch is because I am a great cook (based on the wattage you mentioned above - the way to a man's stomach.... ) But as it turns out my love prefers to cook and cooks more than I do. I am low - key relieved 😋. I think that as long as food is provided the fact that you didn't cook it is now fowl. It is sweet that when you so make the effort he is all in and grateful!
ReplyDeleteNext meal try baked fish, crab fried rice and mixed veggies.
Diced bell peppers and onions. Salt, pepper and oldbay seasoning
Saute the crab meat in olive oil with the peppers and onions.
Add cooked white or brown rice.
Sounds extra but it is quick, easy and delicious!
Thank you for starting this blog sis! Keep it coming!
Please pardon the errors. Until I can figure out how to edit that should be:

Food is provided the fact that you didn't cook is NO fowl.

DeleteHi Mayaselfreflects! I LOVE your name. Let me start by saying WELCOME and THANK YOU! I think this world of blogging is new to many of us. We will figure it out together. 😉
DeleteI'm so glad you found my story amusing. Stick around... It's going to be a fun journey! Lol
I think it's great that you not only enjoy cooking but your love does as well! That's very romantic. You deserve it! I think that not only are you a good catch, but you have a good catch! Women enjoy food too! Diamonds may be a girl's best friend, but food is a very close second.
I'm loving your meal! My husband will not know what to think if I can pull it off. I'm very excited about trying it! I hope some of the other ladies are able to try it out as well. Yummy! I will definitely keep you posted!

(Updated)
I'm going to post my correction as an update because, as previously stated, we are learning together.
So I realized I needed to add something and to my surprise (not really because I was already warned) there was no edit option. I had to copy my original reply and delete it. I then started a new reply. I pasted the previous reply, editing that information. I will look into this a bit more and let you know if I can find an alternative way to make corrections.

That crab fried rice sounds delicious Mayaselfreflects, I must try it. Another thing I love about my husband is HE'S NOT PICKY, oooh that's a BIG relief, he made it clear in the beginning the only things he does not eat is Okra and Asparagus which is on my list of "not gonna be able to do it" so it works out!
DeleteCooking!! I feel you Mrs. Hancock, eating is overrated :-D. I stopped cooking on regular basis a long time ago, why? because it was just me and i'm able to survive off of anything plus it didn't have to be fancy. Although I enjoyed cooking I saw no reason to do it EVERY DAY :-) Now that I'm married I do have a desire to cook on a regular basis, however, my meals are from the old school and they're fattening (go figure), so I too hope to get some easy meal ideas that I can incorporate into our lives. My husband enjoys cooking and does a great job, THANK GOD!!! however, during football and basketball season his schedule does not allow him too that much.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy cooking, it's a passion of mine however I don't do it everyday. It's hard working full time and caring for a house and kid, so I will say some days I don't cook it becomes every man for themself. My husband can cook and has stated it's ok if I'm not in the mood sometimes and that seems to work out good. But then there are some nights where he feels dinner should be done or I should make him something and I usually do even if I don't want to, whereas he doesn't extend the same courtesy. I guess having that open dialogue about expectations should be had and addressed so problems don't keep building.
