Starting point
Example dishes, household size and meal counts are clearer than a broad request for varied cooking. Add serving times and responsibility for ingredients, then discuss the skills required.
when arranging support for the first time
Use a simple brief and clear task examples, allowing time for introductions and explaining the routine.
a weekly review
Review completed and deferred duties and their reasons, then agree changes to priorities or time instead of repeating an unsuitable list.
