[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. I've tried. I sat down at work and created an extensive Excel spreadsheet with all of our transaction and showed exactly how much per month is going out to whole foods. She takes it as an affront to her ability to be a homemaker when I challenge how much we spend on groceries and dining out. [/quote] Well, it is sort of an affront to her ability to be a homemaker. Especially if you are correct, and that you, a non-homemaker, could better shop for and feed the family than she can, when she ostensibly has honed this skill with time. However, I don't see much of a solution here. I mean, how would you like it if she gave you advice on how to more effectively do your job and advance your career. . . and she was always right? I mean, at some point, wouldn't you just feel like, hey lady, you WOTH and bring home the paycheck, then! You may be correct that she is just not good at food budgeting and meal prep. Sounds like you guys should switch roles on that one, if at all possible.[/quote]
