Hey there, you're listening to the Lazy Genius Podcast.

I'm Kendra Adachi and I'm here to help you be a genius about the things that matter

and lazy about the things that don't.

Today is episode 287, how I'm making dinner easier for the rest of the year.

It's early November and we're about to hit the gauntlet if we're not already in it.

Dinner is one of those things that just keeps happening no matter who you are and how you

live.

But today I'm going to share what I'm personally doing to make dinner easier from now until

after the holidays are over and hopefully it will give you some ideas on how to make yours

easier too.

The first way I'm making dinner easier is by paying attention to my expectations.

This isn't as much of a struggle for me as it used to be but I have to tell myself whenever

I get squirrely that repetition is okay.

Chicken four or five days a week is okay.

Spaghetti once a week is okay.

Not making anything new for an entire season is okay.

I don't need that permission as much as I used to but that is a huge part of dinner feeling

easier.

You can repeat stuff.

You can really do anything that helps your life if it matters to you.

We often feel guilty for lots of choices around dinner and I'm just here to tell you that

you don't need to hold guilt as well as dinner.
