Effort does not equal output. We recently hosted (and cooked) a couple of holiday dinners for our friends. For one dinner we served fondue. For the other one, we made tofu banh mi. The fondue took 30 minutes to prep. The banh mi: 2 hours. The thing is people seemed to enjoy the fondue much more than the banh mi.
I really like your thought…and the line ’working harder offers a clear path’
