I am a SAHM. My kids hate my cooking most of the time. My DH is so thrilled and basks in the glory of cooking and feeding them and me after he comes back from work. What can I do? My DH is a kitchen GOD!!!

What are your best recipes for a quick dinner?

Every day (adverb) = occurring daily. "I get up and take a shower every day."

Everyday (adjective) = regular, basic, not special. "He completed his everyday chores before moving on to cleaning the gutters."

I did not think it was possible to be more annoying than OP's brilliant observation, but DCUM never disappoints.


This is important! People are idiots! I thank the language Lorax! Keep it coming.


Posting an inane, unsolicited grammar lecture in the middle of a thread about dinner prep is not something that needs to be "kept coming".


Actually, it's fine if the whole premise of the thread is "I'm better/smarter than all of you dum-dums." If you're going to act superior, you'd better come correct.

I know this will blow your mind (and OP's as well) but some of us...cook "big" meals some nights, and eat leftovers; and then we cook 20-30 minute meals on other nights. So it's like...a balance.


If you eat leftovers, then you are not “cooking fresh” every night. Mind blown.


You do when you make fresh sides, sweetie!

There you go ladies, continue arguing about maternal food work and how much more loving you are because you cook "tasty" and "nutritious" meals; I'm sure your men all love the shrill, joyless harpies you all are.

Right because kids looooove leftovers.
I'm a WOH single mom and I cook everyday. I make enough for us to eat and I take leftovers for lunch the next day. The only day I don't cook is Friday night because pizza.


NP. My kids do love leftovers.
