While I felt pathetic, life is just way too crazy to cook these days. I'm at work about 9 hours a day and then come home to plan and work as long as my eyes are open. It doesn't leave much time for cooking. In fact, it doesn't leave much time for anything (except complaining, which I excel at).
I've tried. In fact, I'll call James up and ask him how he'd feel about whole wheat pasta with a creamy homemade tomato garlic sauce, fresh parmesan chicken, and a nice salad with juicy grape tomatoes and my homemade balsamic vinaigrette. He'll get excited, quite naturally.
And then I'll call him up about 15 minutes before he's set to get home and enjoy the above meal and say, "I've just put a frozen pizza in the oven."
He's so sweet about it too. No complaints. He just happily eats whatever I give him (expect tofu pasta-- a mistake I will not repeat). I just hope I feel like cooking again one day.
Please, if you have easy and FAST recipes, please send them my way! erinthornhillreeder@gmail.com

You might want to try some slow cooker recipes. Also Kraftfoods.com has some really great yummy and easy recipes.
Throw a can of kidney beans and black beans in a 9X13 with a can of chicken broth, a jar of salsa, and some cubed chicken (you can buy that in a can, too). Cook for 30 minutes or so and serve over brown rice. It's super easy and really yummy. I went through a microwave dinner phase when I had no other choice. Not fun.
