From the
article:
Kirsten Gillibrand had a flurry of pots on the stove and steak, haddock, peas, steamed vegetables and rice on the menu.
She had a cable news appearance coming up in a few hours, but for now, her 10-year-old son entertained the family goldendoodle, Maple, a few feet away.
The New York senator was game to talk about motherhood, leadership, her policies and her pursuit of the nation’s highest office, she told a reporter. But first she needed to save dinner.
“I need to focus, because I’m about to burn the fish,” she said. “I’ve reached my point of capacity.”
You know, she’s just a working mom who, like working moms everywhere, prepares steak
and fish for their kids most nights of the week. Pro-tip: Measure the fish before sticking it in the pan:
@SenGillibrand “preheating” the gas burner, as she realizes the fish fillet must be resized to fit in the frying pan.
