I used to create menus for the week and had gotten away from that quite a while ago when I started school. Although my coach helped me rediscover my love for cooking, time just did not allow for the diligence of establishing weekly menus. Today I honored my husband with structure by putting that task back in effect. He used to enjoy knowing ahead of time what would be for dinner and would look forward to it. I like the idea of having a menu because I remember how easy it was to go shopping, how much money I saved, how we had less waste as a result and how much more healthier I cooked. We had more variation in our meals because I was intentional about cooking something different each evening. It also allows me to use my mental capacity in other ways throughout the week and not worry about what to cook for dinner each night which at times was exhausting itself.
Wives of the world how do you or can you honor your husbands with structure? Bryan would say of the two of us he is the more structured person, I say it depends. He is the more routine person because I love variety yet I think I am the more structured person even though I only prefer a little of it. Who is the more structured person in your relationship? In what ways will honoring your husband with structure make your life or his life a little easier? How can you honor him with structure on today? Please share your stories with us; we would love to hear from you.
Blessings,
Rochelle

I am so proud of you Ms Rochelle in developing you cooking skills.My husband is serious about his meals as a chef its a bit more easy for me to have a structured meal planning. Even when I travel I prepare loads of dishes and portion them in small plastic container and pop them in the freezer. All he has to do is pop in the microwave when he is ready to eat. dishess such as soups, casseroles, stews, are great for freezing and reheats great.
That is a great a way to honor your husband; don't they say that the way to a man's heart is thru his belly:)
Fifi and Toyin, thank you both for your gracious comments. I love the idea of preparing the meals ahead and freezing them for later. What a great idea for the winter.
