And actually can't work out which post this specifically applies to :D

Twawmyarse · 08/09/2022 23:27

Anything to do with wanky cooking/foodie stuff like a Gousto box, spiralizer, coffee machine with its own temperature gauge and frother, velvetizer, air fryer or outdoor pizza oven.

I hate cooking and prepare a rota of very simple meals. Cannot be arsed with any gourmet shite - if I want that I eat out!

Because my husband does a perfectly good job so I would prefer the extra cupboard space
