running watches for women reviews image

Answer
I agree with the other people who answered your question, I'll even reiterate, life today is so much more hectic than it was say 30 40 yrs. ago, when the economy was okay, and every home had two chickens in their soup pots, etc. etc. Back then {for the most part}; a family was a complete unit, the father/husband went off to work and was the chief breadwinner of the family, while mom/wife stayed home and cared for the 1.3 children and the dog. When the children and husband returned home, dinner was ready and waiting and piping hot, and most importantly HOME MADE.
Well with the breakdown of families in general, with the increase in divorce rates, and the change of the nuclear family structure, and not to mention the fact that now more and more households are being run by single parents, everyone had to learn to adapt to the times. Away went mom always being home when you returned from school {ahh I remember those days}; away went anticipating dad coming home from the office {I don't quite remember that, my dad was more of a laborer, I love him so}; and with that away went the home cooked meals, enter {dare I say it}; T.V. Dinners, and all that has evolved from ideals such as that, including McDonald's and all its competition, Boston Market and the like.
No one cooks at home anymore 'cause no one has time, alot of people {myself included} work more than one job, just to try to make ends meet, as I'm sure your aware if you own an automobile these days, you'll need one job just to pay for gas on a monthly basis, not to mention rent/house note etc. etc. those things add up, no longer can an "average" household like those of yesteryear be sustained in the same financial manner.
So yes, eventually the question of "what are we going to eat for dinner?" comes up often and nightly, and there has to be a timely solution, either throw something together from a box or bag, or run out and pick something up, or order in, its sad but true, this type of behavior I believe has caused us here in the U.S. to become perhaps the most overweight people ever, {I for one speak on that with experience}.
So basically what I'm saying is the fine are of home-cooking has all but gone away, you see home-cooking is an art of love passed down from generation to generation, its not like going to the high end cooking school and getting a degree. Many mothers/grandmothers are much too busy to have taught their daughters {and sons}; to cook, because of the aforementioned reasons. And many sons and daughters never took the time to watch dear ol' mom in the kitchen when she was cookin, so there goes the art of home-cooking slowly fading away.
But, please let me toot my own horn hear for a minute....I am one of the few the proud the HOME COOKS, I can cook, I love to cook, its very relaxing to me, I love to try new and different recipes, as a matter of fact that was one of my New Years' Resolutions, I'm mostly a soul food cook, but I am always willing to try new and exciting things with food. Just recently I prepared a full Cajun meal for more than 20 of my co-workers {boy that was hard work, I was up all night cooking}; the rave reviews I received made all the hard work worth while. Every year during the holidays I bring in homemade cheesecakes and sweet potato pies, cookies, etc. etc. everyone seems to love my fried chicken, and shhhh! most of the folks here are vegetarians {go figure}.
Anyway, I hope I was able to answer your question to your satisfaction.
Keep looking you'll find a young lady that likes to cook, not just go out to dinner. In the mean time, try watching the food channel, or purchasing some cooking books {I'm not saying you don't know how to cook, but just in case}; they can be fun and enlightening.
Have a great day......
