The husband regrets not eating much of the meal because he didn't feel hungry. The wife suggests that they measure appreciation towards each other through food, but suggests having a small dessert together later if it bothers them.

I'm sorry I didn't eat much of the meal today. I know you put in a lot of effort to make it healthy and delicious.

It's okay, dear. Is there anything wrong with the food? Did you not like it?
human
No, the food was great. It's just that I wasn't very hungry today and I picked at it. I feel bad because I know you worked hard to make it nutritious.

Don't worry about it, love. I appreciate the effort you put into cooking for us. Besides, you don't have to force yourself to eat if you're not feeling hungry.
human
I guess you're right. It's just that I wanted you to see that I appreciate your efforts in the kitchen.

I know you do, sweetie. We don't have to measure our appreciation towards each other through food. But if it's really bothering you, how about we have a small dessert together later?
human
That sounds like a great idea, thank you.

Of course, love. And always remember that I appreciate everything you do for us, including cooking meals for us.

I appreciate you too, my dear. Our love and support for each other is what makes our family strong.
