@japan_nobunaga@shebringsjoy There are people who bring great honor to the family with their dish. My grandmother made chicken and noodles (chickens raised in the back yard and egg noodles made on her counter) for every event. People knew it was coming and still requested it. It was a thing of legend.
@DToecutter@Fat_Electrician Or you set a grocery pickup and you drive there, they load you, and you drive home. Further, you can shop for multiple meals at once. Quit making this seem harder than it is.
