I insist on doing all the grocery shopping and dinner cooking.
I love to cook. Feeding people is my love language. I geek out hard. From mastering the French sauces to nailing traditional fried rice, to slow roasting meats overnight. The kitchen scraps go into stock so we've got a proper broth every other week. My family eats better-than-most-restaurants quality every night.
Then there's the logistics of shopping. I love to manage my kitchen and pantry for efficiency and capabilities. Being able to give the family a choice of what we're going to eat, while wasting no food, while only having to grocery shop twice a week. You should see how stocked my pantry is. I pride myself in being able to feed a dozen people well with little notice.
I should also add I'm the sole provider. I work my career during the day and do all this after that. My wife doesn't work, she's just mom.
