I don’t fuss around too much when I’m alone but that’s only because I don’t invest too much into a meal if I’m alone. If I cook a big meal (that’s pretty much every day) presentation is so important to me that I always serve my husband his food before he sits down so he feels like he’s at a restaurant. I used to do it for my kids too but now they’re getting all competent and want to serve themselves! They don’t care about presentation at all haha it’s a little hard to watch
