I need a wife.

[mizkit]

I would like to have someone come clean the house, do laundry, and prepare meals for me for at least the next several days and possibly the next several weeks, until I'm done with these goddamned books. I'm inching along on writing and it's a quarter to seven and intellectually I'm aware that I need to go make food. I do not want to. I don't

Being as both A) stupidly busy and B) hating prep work i usually:
Buy a bunch of food fixin's (meats, various (4-6) veggies, and and two or three sauces)

Spread foil wrap everywhere
chop veggies into bite size/will cook at the same rate as meat pieces
drop sauce and two or three of the veggies onto the foil
add meat
wrap
freeze

Cook as needed.
If cooking for two, most frozen stuff should take about 2 hours.

Normally when i do this, i get two to three weeks of meals.

Good luck.

BTW, both Urban Shaman and Thunderbird falls were good.

See ya in August.

Scary icon! But trust me, I know all about how housework will eat your life if you let it. Perhaps we could set up a long-house and share a wife? Or else a cleaning service.

I don't want a wife. I want *two* wives. I figure that way we'd have enough people to do housekeeping and laundry and cooking and driving kids to 9834423091 activities and still have enough time to sleep. :)

Did you know that here in Norway they sold 20.000 TONS of frozen pizza last year... (assume that a pizza weighs in at about 500grams, and that there are less than 5million Norwegians... and that some of those probably don't eat pizza... )

I guess some of us have found a solution to at least ONE of the problems...

Me?
I had noodles for dinner today...
(I have a large drawer full of different brands of noodles)

Though, a wife wouldn't hurt...

Housewives

Housewives ROCK!

I had one for about a decade. I worked, Bill stayed home, and it was awesome. I'd come home to a hot supper, all my clothes folded, and the house cleaned. We switched jobs after I became a full time writer, and I'm not as good at housewifery as he was, but he still says I spoil him.

Yes. Definitely. Get a housewife. It's great to have all the little life crap taken care of. Only thing is, Ted might not like sharing you. ;)
