nigel99 143 #1 February 20, 2012 My wife is away for the week and for some reason the ladies at her church have decided that males don't have a clue how to cook or clean Yesterday we were given lunch, today someone dropped off dinner for us. I also had a message that if any washing or cleaning needed to be done to give this woman a call The icing on the cake? I get a break from the kids from Saturday afternoon as someone has invited them around for a sleep-over Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites piisfish 135 #2 February 20, 2012 I thought you were the guy who tried to install Nataly's internet thing scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites nigel99 143 #3 February 20, 2012 Quote I thought you were the guy who tried to install Nataly's internet thing Well he got coffee didn't he?

Nah, when the kids are away I am sure the mothering hens will disappear. I am pretty sure it is because I am a heathen and they are trying to get me to see the light.

Being the last day of the week I thought I'd let you see what I have had to suffer all weekCame home to find someone had just dropped this off. I love the fact that all week I have been given detailed instructions on how to use a microwave - including what to put in the microwave, how long to reheat food for etc. But telling a man how long to BBQ the steak for. Jokes aside, it has been really nice of them to look after us. It has made dealing with 3 teenage kids livable.

When Vskydiver was really sick and in the hospital a few years back, the neighbors and skydivers brought enough food over to feed an army. Although my kids and I all cook fairly well, it sure was a nice thing for everyone to do, and delicious.
