after 14 years of thinking of meals fo r us to eat

[CODDYPANTS]

i have run out of ideas

dh think si have flipped

lol

I hate it.......off to Pizza hut!

(and it's 21 years for me next week!)

he really think si ll snap out of
it

he has decided take away

think he'll slip valium into it

Friend of mine did this one day, don't think she has cooked a meal since......go for it! She hasn't keeled over from malnutrition yet!!

I've just realised I'm hovering around the food threads as have not been able to eat properly for days due to horrible bug.

I'm hungry.

Wot takeaway you having? just describe it to me.......(drools)

buy a cookbook.

you see even that holds no allure

now i live to eat
so all behavour odd

I don't mind the actual cooking - it's the deciding what to cook that does me in.

me too saggarthingy.....
Chinese tonight

I'm so bored of everything I know how to cook, and bored of trying to think of new things. I know exactly what you mean Cod.

ta

ditto here - I hate Sat.morning when we write a shopping list based on what we're going to eat the following week...same old...same old.....

i liek cookign ut one day i want dh to say" i love that xqw meal you do ;ets have that lon tuesday"

no, surely it is time of year - too springy for solid food, not hot enough for salads. some nice chicken and rice thingy will restore you (i hope, gosh it would be dreadful if this ever happened to me).

yes, wouldn't it be nice of they just suggested,in a nice way, what you could have for dinner?

i know
think i may have to have a articel in one fo those trashy mags

"the woman who forgot how to cook"

i hardly ever cook 'planned' food. too much thinking about + shopping, preparing and cooking = unlikely to fancy eating it in teh end. surely boys/dh must make occasional requests though? very cheering when its all properly appreciated.

After 30 years of pretty random domestic provision mine failed years ago. I go "I don't knoooooow!" to "what's for tea?"

Fortunately (?) I am now out at work for 3 meal times a week so that helps (not my problem). And a stock of frozen pizzas/curries accounts for a few more. Sausages...chops...casserole...frozzen fish...something-and-chips...it's not Good Food but it fills the holes.

Like littlefish, we get totally bored with our menu. Bored, all the time !!!
Wish I could come up with inspired, simple, quick meals.

me too, Oblomov. I think inspired cooks are born, aren't they. I do love good food, just not having to think of it and cook it

dh says to me "I love your spag bog" What, the spag bog I make by throwing a jar of asda sauce over mince and sticking it in the oven?? Haha

Indian takeaway tonight as been busy all day and even valeted dh's car King prawn and cucumber curry, lemon rice and peshwari naan Mmmmmmm

no idea what the curry is but it sounds different anyway.

My mate jaqs dreams of cooking and wakes up in a cold sweat full of ideas.

My mother always used to ask us what we wanted for dinner and we would always say 'don't know' and she'd get really upset and mutter things like ' Why do I always have to decide?' Now I know why she got so fed up .

I have solved the problem by having a dh who loves planning meals. He sits down and decided what we are going to eat that week, does the shopping for it and posts the list on the fridge for me to refer to. We divide up the actual cooking of it over the week depending on who is home. The downside for me is that I don't have much input into what we eat in the evenings but he is a healthier eater than me so that is no bad thing .

BTW we did this as Dh is a vegetarian and I had one too many strops along the lines of 'WTF do vegetarians eat?' in the early days of out relationship'

I don't like cooking much but I agree I find the deciding what to make the absolute pits.

Do pasta and loyd grossman sauces until someone offers a suggestion.
