Is that The Spoon Theory is now available in several languages.
While I 100% agree with The Spoon Theory, I do think it leaves some things out. Like the fact that there are ways to preserve your spoons, when necessary.
How?
Well, take the dinner I made last night; meatloaf, champ and broccoli cheese. Each of these things take some spoons in their own right as they require me to use my arms to mix, and my arms are my area of greatest pain. Meatloaf gets mixed by hand, champ needs the potatoes mashed, which I prefer to do by hand, and broccoli cheese requires about 5 minutes of constant stirring to get the cheese sauce nice and thick.
And I knew I didn’t have the spoons to do all of that.
So I compromised and mashed the potatoes in the food processor. If you do this wrong they come out gloopy due to the starch being over processed, so its a bit fiddly. But much easier on my spoon reserve.
I take pride in serving my family fresh homemade food at least 5, more likely 6, nights a week. Which takes spoons.
So I use gadgets to help.
And the champ wasn’t gloopy at all.
And if Adam had eaten any more broccoli cheese, he would have turned green. 🙂
