I know Fred, you think this should all be summarized, but I tend to agree with Stuart that a *lot* would be lost. At MoCoCo we have a group dominated by "P's" (in the Meyer-Briggs typology) so, not surprisingly, we have a very loose system. The idea is that you do what you want to do, and others do other things, and it will come out o.k. We used to cook 5 times a week (for you newcomers, we are Phase 1 (8 apt-type homes in an elegant "mansion/retirement home building) of a 23-home projected community. Of the 8, 3 have "pseudo kitchens" of varying complexity, (microwaves, small frig, etc), and 1 has a hot plate. All can use common kitchen when desiredired ) but several people got busier (working more hours, part time grad school, tax season, DEVELOPMENT work). So it was 3 weekdays (MWF) for a while. You just sign up to cook, try to coral a co-cook, take acct of allergies, and do it. It works a lot better than I thought it would. Right now we are experimenting with hiring someone who also cooks at a vegetarian restaurant, Thurs and Sunday (best attended because often dinner follows a large group meeting). Not sure the economics can cover it ($3 instead of $2 for a meal, plus selling leftovers (normally $1 per "leftover meal") but not impossible, if our non resident members get more into it. 8 households, 11 adults, is definitely too small - can't wait for phase 2 to move in.
