I mean… just yesterday I slow cooked something for 8 hours and ate in 30 minutes with some left over. That doesn’t mean I have to treat it all as “cooking time”.
If I am cooking something more labor intensive then I may just simultaneously cook something else for the week/meal prep/clean used dishes in the gaps in time.
Still It does feel like that sometimes. The only other thing you can really do is cook enough portions for a few meals so that you can reheat for later meals.

When you put it like that, being an adult is so fun!
I think it’s the exclamation points! For example: I’m constipated!
