[quote=Anonymous]Yes, some acknowledgement that someone made you a meal is basically required in our house. Whoever cooks gets some gratitude from everyone who eats. Even if it turns out they don't like the meal! That's fine, you don't have to eat something you don't like. But you do need to thank the person who took the time to plan and execute a meal for you. It's pretty much the bare minimum. DH and I don't have a perfect relationship by a long shot, but the two things we do a lot are express gratitude for each other and make sure to let each other know we love each other. It's amazing how far these habits will go to smoothing over the rough spots, especially when you have kids and especially in middle age when work and family stuff can be a huge slog and you might not have a ton left for each other. "Thank you" and "I love you" do a lot of work to keep us on an even keel.[/quote]
