Egluntyne Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Him Indoors has had a rush of blood to his head and has made an apple pie! It will be lovely I'm sure, but he has used every pot and pan we possess and has left a trail of flour all over the floor. In fact there is more on the floor than there is in the pie! The pots are jumbled in the sink and so are the apple peelings. And as for the kitchen surfaces well....it's best not to go there.

Linda Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Isn't it lovely when they do these wonderful, thoughtful gestures. He might get the bug and want to cook dinner regularly too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola H Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Well at least he knows were the kitchen is...............My OH keeps losing his way he is useless in the kitchen, but I am sure this is a cunning ploy so that I never ask him to cook..............

Laura & CTB Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Yep - it's always a balancing act - do you want dinner cooked for you or do you want a clean kitchen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe Posted January 27, 2007 Share Posted January 27, 2007 Better they take us out for dinner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted January 27, 2007 Author Share Posted January 27, 2007 Yep - it's always a balancing act - do you want dinner cooked for you or do you want a clean kitchen I prefer the clean kitchen if I'm being honest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Carl does most of our cooking - except in January - I've just got used to not going in the kitchen until a bit later in the morning. He's quite well trained and by then he will have loaded the dishwasher. The only bit I have left to do is to wipe all the work surfaces - because, you know all those appliances that are glued down and collect lots of crumbs? I'm not complaining Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Phil appeared at the weekend with a bottle of wine and a wine mulling kit. Now, you'd think that he'd only need one saucepan to heat it all up in wouldn't you? THINK AGAIN I made him wash up the mess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Tell him next time to get ready prepared stuff from M&S - you can even heat it in the microwave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I'll do that Mel, then he can do it at his own house! He says that he needs it as a winter warmer now it's cold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
