I live alone and actually find myself asking me the same question! LOL. Cooking just seems to take so much of the time that I would prefer doing something else. I do try to cook and prepare several things on the days I feel like it and put part in freezer for another day of "I don't want to cook". At least if I feel like toast and eggs or popcorn for dinner, no one else is annoyed. I think my biggest issue is I get tired of eating the sme things and am always on the lookout for something new and different and quick and easy. Thus I check this part of the forum daily looking for ideas!!
