My friend Kerilyn over at Married to a Chef has asked several women to share their thoughts on the marriage-chef-children system. Take a look at what I've written.
And don't forget, Kerilyn is having a get-together in NYC this weekend for anyone who is interested in making a connection.
Food is Love,

This blog is a place for wives, girlfriends, significant others, and anyone else stuck to a chef to come together and chirp to each other about how to deal with the nonsense that goes along with being the wife of a chef. I was struggling to live with a ghost of a husband who I never saw until I met two other chefs' wives that saved me. It was then that I realized there must be more who need love and support too, right? Hilary, First Lady Desperate Chefs'Wives instagram @hilarya25

I loved it and I KNOW that whoever read it... loved it too!!! Thank you for sharing your thoughts Hilary!!!
Hi Hilary,
I really enjoyed reading your input on the married to a chef blog. As a mother of 2 young kids with a chef/owner husband, I've often felt many of the same things that I think many others have been dealing with. It has taken us a few years now to start to work things through and we have realized that it is going to take a tremendous amount of work and compromise from both of us to really make this work. I find it tremendously helpful to read that others struggled with many of the same issues. I often felt like I was a failure for not getting to a harmonious place from the get go. So, Thank you!
I'm so glad I read that. Thank you. I hope that one day my husband and I can be on the same page and openly communicate about the things we need. I have a 20-month old and this is the most difficult thing I've ever done. I also tend to give him a hard time about his schedule. Thank you for reminding me that it's not his fault and this is what comes with the territory. It's so funny because I knew way before I married him that we would struggle with this - you would think I'd be okay since I saw it coming! I wish I could handle it better and be more understanding...
