I made something similar but not very at all tonight.



There were defrosted chicken skewers with soy and lime ready in the fridge, but dinner guests (read-teenage children) didn't materialize.



Surprise, surprise, surprise on a Saturday night!  



Instead of breaking out two dozen skewers, I chose to use some green beans cooked, then infused in a tinned cream of celery soup with added onion, garlic, and sweet paprika plus a couple of a leftover chicken sausages slice thinly with a big garden salad on the side.



Fash's looks and probably tastes better. I however fed four and preserved a main course for tomorrow night (teenagers always return on Sunday nights, like Vampires who suddenly remember where their coffins are).  ac_biggrin

I made brown rice pasta with chopped spinach, olives, garlic,  feta and olive oil. Pretty fast and easy.

I've never gotten into brown rice but I like pasta, so could be good.

It helps.



A lot of men still don't have to cook or budget the food shopping for their families.

 All this blurring the boundaries of gender roles is why most people get divorced.  My husband helps with these things, but it's not his territory and same with me when it comes to being the bread winner. I help....but it's not my territory lol.  People have a strong delusion that to be valid as a person, we have to BE ALL.  That's not how we are wired.  And the pharmaceutical company profits off the depression and anxiety. Everyone us medicated. You don't have to be female to do this, no. But if you were married raising a family, you have to respect each others boundaries and allow for certain roles. Same with parenting. Men can't breastfeed.

I have been married and done all the cooking and made our lunches for the next day, so being female to know what she's talking about is horse shit!!!

Yes, I understand this discussion. Both people, however the relationship is put together, need to work together. It is not that "I did this, and you can't." It is about the two people doing what they are "good, or can do, are best at," in the relationship, however formed.



In any relationship, once "one person" thinks that they are the only supporting person, the relationship begins to fail.



I urge everyone in a relationship, to work together. Yes, at this time, men can't get pregnant, and some can't cook, but they contribute the union in other ways.
