Home cooked meals are why I can afford to be a housewife!
My partner and I only bring in around 48k/yr and thanks to cooking from scratch for everything its totally a reasonable amount!
I make a loaf of multigrain sourdough every week for our breakfast egg, onion, jalapeno, sandwiches, egg prices included that’s 12 a week for breakfast at the highest. Dinners we use whatever produce is in season, stews and casseroles are most common. We usually end up at around 40/week for dinners.
Add that to the fact that I’m a nerd who can selfhost out services (I run a jellyfin server with all of my physical media backed up to it, so its my Netflix and my Spotify, and idc about piracy so I rip stuff I get from the library too) and were also spending only electricity on media every month… Usually.
There is so much money savings to be had by making your own food that I will literally work less so I have more time to cook. It saves that much money.
I’ve heard every fake excuse in the book from people who are basically just too lazy.
They claim it takes too much time, that is objective bullshit.
They claim it’s too difficult, that is objective bullshit.
They claim they are in a food desert. Would never occur to them to just take a taxi to the store and buy groceries if really it’s that difficult to get around. Once again, objective bullshit excuse.
They find nitpick bullshit self-satisfying ways to deny they should have to cook like suggesting that making fresh dough everyday is too much work… Right because the thing to do is make dough every day, not once a month and just freeze blobs.
