[quote=Anonymous]The single biggest thing that worked for me was changing cooking from being a chore into something that meant social or therapeutic time. If you're spending a lot on going out because that's the default option for socializing, bring that into your kitchen. Whether it's just you and your husband, or you invite friends over, make the actual cooking of dinner part of the social evening. Or, make cooking your personal time to recharge. Think about your favorite dishes to order when you go out, and vow to learn how to cook even better versions of them at home. Chopping and sautéing can be a great way to decompress after staring at a computer all day. Don't beat yourself up if you don't have a perfect dinner on the table six nights a week. Take it slow and start with easy and easy options. Make-your-own tacos, pizzas, and omelettes is a super easy way to personalize each person's meal without much effort.[/quote]
