Wanted: People willing to invite me over for a typical, weekday dinner.

We’re writing a story about real Canadians and what they’re cooking, ordering, microwaving or eating during a typical mid-week dinner. Sorry, lavish Sunday dinners don’t apply.

We’re looking for a spectrum of people: singles, couples, students, seniors, big families, single-parent families and newcomers from across Greater Toronto with incomes and eating habits as diverse as the city itself.

Don’t be intimidated. We know how hard it is to pull together a meal. Right now my picky 3-year-old will only eat “box pasta,” cucumbers and fresh fruit, while my vegetarian teenager eats tofu and sauce or grilled cheese more times in a week than I should admit. My omnivore husband and I often resort to toast and scrambled eggs.

If you’re willing to let meand a photographer document your dinner, email jbain@thestar.ca.
