When daddy is the chef de cuisine and some random shit in your fridge is expired but smells ok.

      Some days be like this.

      You got a bunch of half ingredients, and you’re too tired to go to the store to flesh out their dinner plate.

      I def fed my kids a dinner of hot dogs, slices of bologna, bread ends, leftover macaroni and like 9 grapes.

        Exactly. The Mrs is down with covid so I’m spending 4 hours away from my desk in the middle of the day being daddy school bus. Leave before 6, home after 8, fridge and bank account are empty. Those were my last 3 hot dogs. Tonight will probably be PBJ and a couple hard boiled eggs.

        ETA: pbj on those warm buns could have been pretty tasty. Opportunity missed?

        I’m sorry dude. Bad mood yesterday and I don’t have kids but I definitely understand a lazy meal.

          No need to apologize my man. Fwiw I’m not the best cook. I have trouble chopping things that are round. If I have time, stews and soups are my zone. My wife likes cooking and is a good cook, so I’m a little spoiled. My 4 year old is in her picky eater phase so that doesn’t help.
