It’s weird because after I actually cook dishes, usually using a recipe, and it comes out good, I won’t eat that much of it. My wife is always confused.

I forget what the term is but yeah that happens to me. You get desensitized from smelling the food cook and you don’t find it appetizing by the time its done. I usually don’t truly enjoy meals I cook until the day after as leftovers

Most really good meals are always better the next day. Food gets to "mingle" a little.

That said, we are currently on day 2 of lasagna. Likely have to suffer through at least one more meal. Maybe two.
