Mother-in-law could become the heroine of the program “Culinary sentence”

Each hostess decides whether to cook her food for a week ahead or she can indulge the family every day with new dishes. On this basis, there was a conflict between Lyudmila and her mother-in-law. Women have a different approach to household chores and preparing food for the week. Which one is right?

“My husband never reproached me for having nothing to eat in our house. There wasn't a day I didn't make him a delicious dinner. But my mother-in-law somehow decided that I was a bad mistress, not preparing a seven-liter pan of borscht for the week ahead.



I remember when we first started dating Vova, we came to visit his mother. There was a lot of food on the table. And pancakes, and jam with zucchini caviar, and apple pie. There were only two of us, and it was covered like ten. I still don't understand why rice and buckwheat pancakes are mixed.



She asked her mother-in-law what she was making pancakes from, and she calmly said what was on hand. Honestly, I lost my appetite. It's like a dog got leftovers, I'm not a dog. Then my mother-in-law told me that she doesn’t stand at the stove every day. I was wondering what kind of modern mom my husband doesn’t spend his life on a single day. And then my mother-in-law continued. She said she cooks one big pot of borscht for a week, makes some porridge, and that's it. And if something stagnates in the fridge, she cooks it again.



My mother always told me that you need to eat a variety of foods, because from different foods we get different vitamins and minerals that are necessary for the body to work. Only in my mother-in-law's cooking, I don't see any variety or vitamins. It does not cook for people, but for cattle.”



It is unpleasant when the mother-in-law comes to visit us and immediately goes to check what we have in the refrigerator. One day she came and said, what am I going to feed my husband? I explained to her that I was going to fry potatoes and bake fish for dinner, make some salad. My mother-in-law did not satisfy this answer. She started cooking some buckwheat with some roast in my kitchen.



And on my birthday, Lyubov Stepanovna gave me a hefty pot and a form for baking, they say, now there will be 10 kg of food to harvest for a hungry husband. I'm tired of her treating me like that. Well, in different ways we farm, I believe that food should be eaten fresh, and Lyubov Stepanovna likes to be safe.



Only that borscht in the fridge will spoil in a week. And neither I nor my husband have the desire to eat the same seven days in a row, sometimes we order food at home to spend time with each other, to watch some movie in the evening.



My mother-in-law believes that I am a wife who is unlucky and starving of her husband. Now she brings us two torsos of cooked food on weekends: soup, casserole, some fatty meat, blueberries. We don't eat that much food together. It spoils, you have to throw it away. How do you explain to your mother-in-law that she translates food? Her mother-in-law is retired, she wastes so much money on food that spoils and goes to the trash.”



Moms never stop taking care of their kids. Love Stepanovna worries about her son and wants him to be healthy and full. It's natural. But for some reason, the son does not want to explain to his mother that she is overstepping the stick. And there is always conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, because they look at the situation from different angles. The family needs to come together to discuss this issue peacefully, otherwise the mother-in-law will simply continue to waste her pension and conflict situations will recur again and again. How would you decide that?
