One of Life's Conundrums

Why is that I can spend $200+ on groceries and the cupboards and fridge are filled with food, yet there's still nothing to eat in this house?

Lately, I'm hungry, but not for anything in particular. So I skip meals. Or I eat cereal. A lot. Every night the hubs asks what we're doing for dinner because he, too, thinks there is nothing to eat in this house. Every night I answer him with a resounding "I don't know." Then he asks if I want to go out and I dread answering that question as well because I know what his next question will be... where do you want go? Since I never seem to know what I'm hungry for, I never seem to know where I want to go. And surprisingly enough, the hubs never knows what he wants either.

I'm usually very decisive about all things, but when it comes to food, it's nothing but blah. It's like I'm bored with all food choices. I can go to the grocery store and find absolutely nothing I want to buy. So I buy stuff that I think I should buy - like food for the Mo-meister, bread, milk, eggs, and various other sundry. Then I bring it home and don't want any of it.

I wish I could afford a personal chef - one who would cook all kinds of yummy food from scratch, clean up (along with the rest of the house for that matter) and do the grocery shopping too! Yeah, I'm a dreamer...

Oh, and please don't suggest I cook. I don't do that!

I'm with ya on that one! It's the same thing when you have a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear. If you want some recipe ideas, check out http://cookingwithchristine.blogspot.com. She enjoys putting her kitchen to good use. To me...It's just another room to clean!

I think our house has a kitchen. I'm not sure what it's for but it came with the rest of the house! ;-)

LOL! I know what you mean. I think I had a spurt of about a week there that I actually cooked and that went away, probably for about another year or two!

we're in the same boat. my favortie part is when i end up having to toss out the food i bought because we didn't make it before it went bad. that's the best.

Michaela, I can totally relate. We throw food away every single week.

SAME HERE. I just went to Costco and we have ALL this yummy food. But I got COFFEE for dinner. WTF. *sigh* Oh, yea, I don't cook either. But I must save money. Some day. ;-)

This sounds just like our house every day. We go grocery shopping once a week and yet we never have anything good to eat. I usually just end up drinking diet soda for most meals.
I hate the "where should we go" question too. Because I never know what I feel like. So John and I just start arguing and end up not going anywhere.
