Have I got the only husband who thinks that all cooking is a woman's job !!

He once made me beans on toast 17 years ago for lunch, unfortunately I didn't come home from work to eat it I went to the pub instead, hence he has never cooked since.

Thought I'd share this with you all, especially for those still in the UK so you'd know what to expect when you get here!

BBQ - by definition its the only type of cooking a real man will do.

When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:

1. The woman goes to the shops

2. The woman makes the salad, vegetables and dessert

3. The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man, who is lounging beside the grill, ready with beer in hand.

4. The man places the meat on the grill

5. The woman goes inside to organise plates and cutlery

6. The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer whilst he deals with the situation

7. The man takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the woman

8. The woman prepares the plates and brings them to the table

9. After eating the woman clears the table and does the dishes

10. Everyone praises the man and thanks him for his cooking

11. The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off". And, upon seeing her annoyed reation, concludes that theres just no pleasing some women!



It'd be funny if it were'nt so true!

I thought this was brillant, well done for actually writing it down.
