So the rule should be that whoever cooks also cleans everything that can be cleaned before serving. The other person cleans up after you’re done eating.
I personally find that cleaning up afterwards is much harder even if there are fewer dishes, so it feels like a fair deal.
We have the opposite rule. I’d someone cook they are not on the hook for any cleaning. Obviously, you should be cleaning some stuff as you go, but if you make the effort to cook something more special, you shouldn’t be punished for it with more chores.
this is okay until you have a partner that cooks every single thing in the house in a manic state over the course of a day and expects you to clean up the aftermath.
if ever i acquire another partner in the future who feels the need to do much cooking, they can clean up afterwards!
This is why the one who does the cooking should do the dishes.
When I am done cooking?
The only dishes are the plates we eat off of, and the utensils.
It is not difficult to clean as you go .
My wife somehow uses every single pot, pan, cutting board, and cooking utensil we own. Like good damn it was just a grilled cheese. What happened

For many people, who dont like cooking, having a partner that is happy to cook something special for them every day is heaven.
