What's for Dinner?

[Sundae]

Good for you, and good for them.
In hindsight I probably did automatically say thank you, because that's how I was raised too.
But I honestly didn't appreciate the time and effort put into cooking.
Which is a shame, because Mum is a reluctant cook. To her it was always too much time and too much effort (as Bruce says, fucking drudgery) so a bit more appreciation from us would have gone a long way.
Had we been born ten years later, we might have been brought up on frozen/ ready meals. As it was, we were lucky to grow up in the seventies, when home cooking was the norm, Mums bought fresh food from individual shops and stretched budgets using slow cooked cheap cuts. Which is what I'm going to do tonight!

I genuinely enjoy cooking.
More than I do baking, which I only do for the response.
I'm currently waiting for them to bugger off for the day so I can start my marinade
