Sometimes, we get good ideas from the TJ demos, other times it is from watching some cooking shows. However, I'm tired of eating and just don't enjoy food as much as I used to. DH doesn't like much variety so that doesn't help either. Some people live to eat, but at my age I just eat to live.
Oh, no. Poor you.
To me, that is so sad since I consider food to be one of life's greatest pleasures....especially when family is around my table.

I wish I could say that I am not, that I try new things all of the time, blah blah blah etc. etc. etc.
But I don’t. I pretty much make the same few things over and over and over again. I don’t exactly get sick of it, but I wish there were a few things I could easily make that were different. Not necessarily better, but different. I suppose I go out to eat when I want something different.
I do believe this is a part of the reason those box meal kit deliveries are doing so well. It's definitely one of the reasons I went in that direction.
I've lost some weight just cooking myself. I'm not a great cook, but I'm eating more healthily.
That's it, right there. You don't necessarily have to be a great cook, to make healthy or nutritious meals for yourself. I never get tired of my own cooking, partly because I know that no one else would fix food for me, that I could depend on being free of things I would not want to eat.
I'm not, but to be fair, I don't cook that much. These days, even once a week is being generous. However, when I've been eating unhealthy, junk, and/or processed foods for a bit, even anything that's homemade will taste pretty good, and make you feel better too!
Me. My wife was the cook, and a very good one. The fellow I am visiting can’t cook, either, his wife left him. Where he lives is rural. You can’t even find a good hamburger here. I have made eggs 1,000 ways but nothing like my wife could. I read here often for ideas.

We have tried the boxed meals a few times, they are easy, not all that pricey if you have a discount and are a diversity from daily cooking, but they still do not compare with home cooking.
