😬 I feel so guilty everytime I do this...
Order takeout 🙈 I feel like I'm personally driving a knife into Mother Earth's back everytime I open up that delivery app. I mean, the emissions from the driver alone make me want to cry, let alone all the packaging, the plastic, the non-organic food. And when was the last time you ate a truly SATISFYING delivery meal?
But when I don't get home until 7pm and my husband asks what I want for dinner, the very last thing I want to do is start chopping vegetables.
We've tried to meal plan, and meal prep, and to be honest, sometimes we make it happen. Sometimes I'm superwoman on the weekends and I make it to the traditional market, and I make a list of meals we'll have for the week.
But most of the time, I totally don't. Most of the time I'm wayyyyy too wiped out by the hours I spend in the classroom to do much more than cuddle with the dogs and sit in the sunshine on the weekends.
So, when I manage to chopy essential veggies, when I manage to get just that bit done, I call it a win. And it is! Having any bit of prep done before dinner is that much less I have to do in the 3 hours I have after work and before bed.
