Prepping for the week ruins my Sundays.

OP here. I can’t. Picky eaters and allergies. Wish I could.


How many muffins are your kids eating every week? Can't you batch cook and freeze some?

OP, whole foods sells allergen free kids muffins. Abe's brands. Just find a place to buy these in bulk.

https://www.abesmuffins.com/

Also, I skip laundry for the kids every week. It's not going to hurt anyone. Twice a month is fine.

For dinners, just get used to basic cooked meat and roasted/microwaved vegetable side for weekdays. This is quick and easy and you don't need to prep it on the weekends. For instance, our dinner: Air fryer panko chicken breasts and roasted asparagus.

PS, also for other allergy friendly snacks, look at Made Good bars and products.

All clothing drawers in our house are a mess, I don't fold well and for the kids, even when I bother refolding, it's a mess within a week, so it's just not worth the time. As long as it's IN a drawer, no matter how it's balled up, shoved in, to get it there, I consider that a win as far as laundry is concerned. The house looks clean if the laundry is in a drawer, so who cares otherwise (well, except my MIL who will refold everything so neatly and spend hours doing so, but if she wants to spend time doing that, more power to her.... I just feel bad when it's back to it's usual state 3 days later)...

Just started incorporating them into my routine. I love TV, but feel super unproductive. podcast while doing the 'have to' is a nice compromise.

Abes suck. Sorry not sorry. They are gross and MadeGoodbars are great in a pinch when you have to use individually-packaged snacks but they have no fiber and no protein. Yall are seriously ladysplaining being a parent to a kid with allergies who still needs their nutritional needs met. GO GET A JOB.

Compare the 1g protein and 1g fiber muffins you linked to these: https://thenaturalnurturer.com/veggie-loaded-chocolate-protein-muffins/#recipe they have 7g protein and 8g fiber.

I know this is repulsive to many but we don't change the sheets weekly. Maybe monthly. Maybe. So far nothing awful has happened.

Also we really only do the bathrooms when company is coming over, or when it actually looks dirty. If there's that pinkish scum, it's time for a wipe. If it still looks ok, it's ok.

+1. These are nutritionally garbage (do you seriously feed your children 40% of their sugar for the day in one muffin??)

I actually have a job which is why I feed my kids abes muffins and madegoodbars. F off if you have time to cook organic nutritious everything in your household or work from home. Yes, some of us actually HAVE jobs and make do as best we can. Get a grip on reality for most parents. Sheesh.

Same, we have done this for years. My kids shower plenty, wear clean clothes, and don't stink. I know when they do stink, so I'm not just immune to their smell. If you shower daily, sheets don't get that dirty.

I feed my kids cheerioes for breakfast, box mac and cheese and chicken nuggets for dinner and send abes muffins and made good bars as snacks because while my kids don't have allergies, their friends and classmates do, and I don't feel sorry about it (wow, the judgment on here!)
