[quote=Anonymous]No peace would be made. I work full-time, too, so his time is not more precious than mine. Does your DH literally help out with nothing?

Delegating works for me. I do most of the inside house stuff (like hiring the monthly cleaners) and he takes care of the outside house stuff. I do our sons’ laundry and he’s in charge of the dishes/dishwasher. Cooking—the kids always eat something we would not eat. Sometimes he will cook, sometimes I will cook, but most of the time we both just stare at the frig wondering what’s for dinner and then we’ll fend for ourselves.

The meal kits are great, because all the ingredients are right there, but there is still quite a bit of prepping to do before dinner is ready 30-45 minutes later. If you have spare income and want to try more ready-cooked foods, Mighty Meals and Factor 75 are decent. We did a lot more fast food when the kids were younger 2&4, maybe? It was such a rush to get them picked up, fed, tired out and then to bed.[/quote]
