Hard disagree. The process is fun, and everyone loves to eat, but the cleanup is drudgery at its basest form.
Tidy as you go. Don't see it as a separate task. Tidying up is part of the cooking process.
That's what I do - I clean as I cook because I've got ADHD and I will never conquer a big pile of dirty cookware... clean one at a time so it's never an imposing task.
Implement the golden rule: cooks don't clean.
My cats aren't gonna do the dishes
I prefer to be the one doing the cleaning so I don't have to feel limited in what or how I cook in order to be considerate to the person cleaning up, otherwise it adds an element of stress I don't need and an artificial constraint.
