Evening meal preparation has been an ongoing controversy between Trish and me. I've always done the grocery shopping, a task she hates. She does the vast majority of the cooking, a task I hate.
Neither of us could be called foodies. She likes well-rounded meals, as do I. Thing is, I just don't care enough about food to spend much time preparing meals. If Trish isn't around, I grab whatever's quick and easy - canned soup, sardines, cheese and crackers, whatever.
We do our own thing for breakfast and lunch. At dinner time, I help out by setting and clearing the table and performing a few sous chef tasks. I barbecue the entree every few days, while Trish does the sides.
The last couple years I've been stocking the freezer with frozen, single-dish meals like pot pies and P F Chang's, which lightens the load a bit. So, do things even out? We probably disagree, but have agreed to maintain the status quo.
