[quote=Anonymous]I’ve only done on beach house family “vacation” - but yeah it sucks. Men in general are more than happy to let women do domestic work. Even though my SIL is a doctor who doesn’t appear to like cooking she gets stuck with it too. The way we managed it (unspoken but agreed upon) is that breakfast and lunch were on our own. There were I think 5 dinners. The first was pot luck with dishes the grandmothers brought prepares. Second night we went out. Third and fourth SIL and I alternated. Fifth we attempted to make our DH’s do it, but of course the grandmothers stepped in to rescue them. That ended up being a group effort with my DH grilling steaks (everything else by the women) and his even lazier brother doing nothing. I love cooking and it’s my only hobby basically, but there is no way I would cook constantly on vacation. [/quote]
