It will also mean she never lets him clean again........like when my DH tried to help me and start dinner since I was stuck in traffic on way home.
I had about 6 phone calls back and forth as to how to brown mince, how to add sauce then how to cook spaghetti (making spag bol) I gave step by step instructions as simply as I could, right down to boiling kettle for pasta and follow time on packet instructions.
I arrived home to find a perfect 'block' of mince browned on all sides, raw in the middle sitting in a pan surrounded by sauce and the spaghetti sticking out of the kettle!!!!:eek::eek:
I let him off with not cooking for a long time after that!

'tis what happens when mummies look after their little boys until they are nearly 30yrs old and never let them lift a finger to do things for themselves!!!;)
His other classic was yet another night I was running late, after the spag bol I thought best to keep it safe and stick to 'freezer food', rang him and said there is a 2 pack of chicken kievs in freezer just stick them in the oven....even added BE SURE TO READ INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY....I'll be home soon.
Came home, DH sitting looking pleased with himself says "just need to stick chips in oven as they don't take as long"
I go into put chips in oven and see smoke billowing from oven door, opened with caution to find chicken kievs sitting on tray.....still in their black plastic container which nad now melted around chicken and was giving off noxious fumes!:eek:
DH came in and I said (along the lines of) "!!!!!! were you thinking"?? he just looked at the smoking pile of plastic and said "can you not just scrape that off?":rotfl:
What really got me was he had gone to the trouble of cutting a perfect circle in the top of the clear plastic lid bit....."in order to let the steam out!":D0 -
The other morning before I went to work I sprayed some cillit bang on the fridge freezer door, got distracted putting on my lippy and drove to work forgetting about it.
I came home and my husband was being all secretive, offering to cook and fetch milk for tea etc. Anyway, we were in bed that night and I suddenly remembered that whilst Mr Muscle was sleeping next to me, I forgot to wipe off the Cillit Bang. I headed down to the garage and realised to my horror there is no paint left on the doors.
If he finds out he will go mad. He is down the pub at the moment and I am hiding out at a friends house. EEK.0 -

we spruced up our American sytle fridge freezer recently. Like you we cant afford to change ours and it has been in the family for years. It serves us well when we have the neighbours over for dinner and we can take advantage of all the supermarket reduced items.
I wouldnt use cillit bang to defrost, we just leave the doors open.

This reminds me so much of when I first moved in with my ex-husband, he was only 21 and went straight from living with Mummy who did everything for him to living with me. I called him from work one afternoon to ask him to put a chicken in the oven for a roast, he said 'do I need to take the plastic off and take it out of the polystyrene tray?' - at least he asked first I suppose..... Another one was when I asked him to put some spaghetti on to cook as I'd made bolognese, he went into the kitchen and came back a couple of minutes later, 'I've got the spaghetti out of the cupboard but I think it's gone off, it's all hard'. He had NEVER been shown that pasta was dried and you had to boil it in water to cook it..... and don't get me started on him not knowing how to poach an egg..... :mad:0 -
