Neither my wife nor I have had to cook for more than two people regularly in over a decade, yet we still make too much more often than not. So much that we end up with leftovers for three days or more at times. By then, I don't want to look at the stuff since I take leftovers for lunch most days. Tough to have the same thing for five or six meals in a row. I hate to complain about this, it's definitely a first-world problem and I'm a bit ashamed that I even feel this way. We just need to cook up smaller batches to begin with. Old habits die hard.
