Ol' girl goes in for her colectomy tm. In for a week +.

Bit worried about the recovery as she weighs bugger all. Definitely not going in in the best of shapes. I've locked horns w/ the ol' boy way too many times but the main thing is food.

Dude can't cook and that will be a problem.

How the fuck you can go through life and best you can do is a crumpet or overdone steak is beyond me. Hasn't even tried once.

I understand that generation is a bit different w/ gender roles etc. but following a recipe isn't exactly hard.

Ffs, drop the 'it's a womans job' shit mentality and learn. Seriously stuck in the 1950's.

Thanks for reading my rant.

Aren't those meal kit boxes pretty simple? Helofresh

They're not really that simple, they do the planning and provide the ingredients but there is still a lot of actual cooking and chopping involved. They also don't do single meals, so you either need to work out how to divide it over a couple of nights cooking or have a lot of leftovers.
