I am a modern, successful woman, however there are two thoughts that plague me each day and remind me that no matter how much society has progressed, it hasn’t progressed as much as it should have.
Those thoughts are:
- Have the kids got enough clean school uniforms and sports gear to last the week;
- What on earth am I going to cook for dinner tonight?
Dinner isn’t optional when you have three kids. They don’t care if I’m tired or if I’ve run out of time to make dinner. They want a meal, even if I’d be just as happy with peanut butter on toast. It can also be hard to think of interesting things to make. There are a few meals I can make that tick all their boxes (spaghetti and meatballs, tacos, chicken schnitzel).
They are reasonably quick to make, healthy-ish and eaten heartily by all of my children. However, I have to make sure I have all the ingredients. And the energy to cook it. And the motivation to clean up afterwards.
