When I was a kid, I was very upset when my grandmother and mother started asking me what I wanted for dinner first thing in the morning, when I hadn’t even had breakfast.

I wondered how they could be so stressed, it’s just dinner, I thought of my innocence.

As I grew up, more and more I became like them.

I love to cook and always cooked, now with my own house it’s harder to plan a menu.

Sometimes it’s not cooking that it costs to know what to do for dinner. It me off when I ask my husband “What do you want for dinner tonight?” and he says” Whatever you want”.

And when I do “anything I want,” he says it wasn’t exactly what he wanted. Has it ever happened to you?

I think it’s the dilemma of my life figuring out what to do for dinner haha
