[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder though if OP did as people suggest and just go out with the kids and DHs, would the women in the kitchen see her in a bad light? I also don't want to spend that much time in the kitchen on vacation. We do a lot of pre-prepared meals.[/quote] Yeah, I think the real crux of the matter is whether they would get upset if OP didn't want to participate. Like, if you really enjoy cooking, and want to spend your vacation cooking and doing dishes, great -- but OP doesn't. Can she get out of it? She doesn't get to choose the meals; is she expected to help cook them anyway? Personally, I like some cooking on vacation, but not every meal. Lunches are definitely quick and easy sandwiches or leftovers. Breakfasts are usually cereal or scrambled eggs or something like that. If there is an elaborate meal, it's likely to be dinner, but not every night. [/quote]
