[quote=Anonymous]Yes, I go through fits and spurts — and I do some freelance food writing and blogging — so I normally REALLY love cooking. I find it’s like a lot of things — if my focus is elsewhere or I’m extremely stressed, my creativity just goes down. Sometimes I like to cook for an escape from whatever it is, but that is generally less practical “get dinner on the table on a weeknight” meals, and more creative, aspirational, fun things that might take the better part of a weekend afternoon. I go with the flow. We are fortunate in that we are not on an extremely tight food budget so when there are times when we’re getting more takeout or eating out more, we don’t beat ourselves up over it. Also, I have tried the HelloFresh type kits occasionally and I find that they have their place — when you don’t have time to grocery shop or prep ingredients, or when you don’t want to add a bunch of extra items to your fridge (we do them the week before a vacation now).
