[quote=Anonymous]I cook 4/5 weeknights. My spouse and I split dropoff/pickup. On days when I get home by 5 or 5:30, I'll make something that takes a little more time. If I get home with the child at 6 or 6:30 I make something that can be on the table in 20 minutes. This week I've done pickup and gotten home on the later side, so I've made quick meals -the chicken soup with fresh salsa that was in the Times a few weeks ago (had chicken cooked in advance) making soup and salsa probably took about 30 min -corn tortillas, beans, rest of the fresh salsa, spinach on the side -tofu stirfry with spinach and peas and rice noodles It's definitely tiring because I walk through the door, take off my coat, and start cooking, but it is what it is. Some weeks I do a lot of cooking ahead on the weekend and that makes things easier. Cleaning: whoever isn't doing bedtime does dishes and a quick cleanup. We save major cleaning and laundry for weekends.[/quote]
