The author humorously contrasts her and her husband Jim's cooking styles, highlighting the significant difference in food presentation. While she prides herself on visually appealing meals, Jim's creations resemble a chaotic mess, often described as though a toddler prepared them. Despite her appreciation for his effort when he cooks, the lack of care in arrangement affects her dining experience, evoking a sense of less affection in his meals. Ultimately, she yearns for a bit more attention to detail from Jim in his culinary contributions.
When Jim makes curry, it's dolloped with the precision of a toddler doing finger painting.
I know Jim means well, but when he hands me a messy plate it feels as though it's been made with less care.
