Don't Wake The Kids

And Other Rules for Motherhood

Frozen Pizza

on July 6, 2010

005 I don’t like to cook. Never have. I love to bake though. I’m not sure why. I refused to learn how from my mother. I would tell her, “I’m going to marry someone who can cook.” And so I did.

James is a wonderful cook, so he does most of the meal prep. Sure I prepare side dishes, mostly with my trusty microwave. And James will tell you I’m not good at using timers. I often forget to set them. I get so sidetracked in the kitchen.

Even though I don’t like to cook, I can fill in if the need arises. My tacos are “famous” – well according to Diva. If James knows he’s not going to be home one night, he’ll usually get us a frozen pizza so I don’t have to cook. It’s just easier. Prepping food, timing the noodles, negotiating heated burners all while wrangling our herd of children can be a little much for me.

Jumpshot shared his perspective on the need for frozen pizza one night. “Does Dad get frozen pizza because he knows you can’t cook?”

Absolutely!
