I've lost the ability to cook

I seem to have lost the ability to cook too!

But I also HATE meal planning. I don't have a clue what I will feel like on Wednesday!

Yes!!! Me too.
I loved foodie mags and cooked new stuff a lot. Not anymore though. Made even more frustrating when there's only one adult. I should take on Fiona's tips.

Do you mean for stock Lulu? There's a recipe in the edc.

Yup, what Kim said lulu, just change the veggies listed for what you have, stick to overall same weight though.

Thanks lovely

so relieved to find out i am not the only one having problems with this issue.

have never understood how to meal plan. have downloaded the info, printed it out, read it, but been unable to co-ordinate it all, to put it into practice. Can totally understand i would save money/food if i did menu plan.

every day, dd comes up with a new excuse NOT to eat. She refuses to eat Maccas, recently she refused to eat icecream. Let alone what i offer her. The paed wants me to fatten her up, ha, i would just be happy if she ate something. I haven't made a stirfry or anything "normal" to me, for so long, i've forgotten how.

the last time i mustered up the courage to make lasagne, dd refused to eat it (it's supposedly her favourite thing to eat) because "it's too cheesy". This kid adores cheese. i cannot win. i had some myself, it was actually quite nice lasagne.

I am also hopeless at cooking now (DH is 95% cooking and we have NO variety) and hopless at meal planning. This was our major argument for foodmotron but so far we haven't experimented much with meals.
