[quote=Anonymous]HF here with split shift and HP's who are not home until after dinner a few evenings per week. Dinner prep is definitely in our letter/profile/job description. It's never been an issue. These dinners are easy and generally involve heating food (i.e. frozen turkey lasagna) on busy evenings (kids sports) and grill meals on less hectic evenings (chicken breasts, turkey burgers, etc). And I am one of those HPs who asks AP to just cook the entire package so there are leftovers for HPs and/or her lunch the next day. In return, I cook pretty awesome homemade meals 2-3 evenings per week (lots of fresh farmers market items, fresh fish, lots of variety), and we include her on the 1-2 nights we order in and/or eat out. It's worked for now 3 APs. I would hope that an AP who can't heat food or doesn't want to have anything to do with dinner prep, would see this requirement in our profile and just not choose to not to engage with us?? And if she didn't pick it up in our letter, it would certainly come up in our interview where we make this clear. [/quote]
