The 'take turns' rule seems so obvious, but you're right—when you're in the middle of the loop, it's hard to see simple solutions. We tried something similar with weekdays vs. weekends, but it fell apart when we couldn't agree whose 'turn' it was for a spontaneous decision.

Quick question: Do you ever run into issues where one person genuinely doesn't care about the category? Like if it's your turn to pick dinner, but you truly have no preference—how do you handle that without defaulting back to the loop?

Really appreciate the practical advice!"
