My husband the chef

So my husband makes it very clear that he doesn't cook. It freaks him out, he thinks he will burn the house down, haha. The other week, he actually forgot to put water in his ramen noodles and my house ended up smelling awful and burnt for a few days. He works from 10 pm to 6am on Mondays and I get off at 7 and am home by 7:30. Last night was Monday night and I wanted to make sure he got to have a nice dinner before he had to leave for work, which is 9 to get there in time. (Plus I had meat defrosted that I really needed to use that night or it would have gone to waste.) I had him make meat balls :)!  He was relucant but I walked him through the whole process over the phone on my way home from work. He did a great job! They were meatballs with gouda and asiago cheese in them, and when I got home I made chipolte noodles to go along with them. I'm proud of him lol. I hope one day he will cook again!

Re: My husband the chef

  • Good for him! Real men should know how to cook!
  • H is great with the grill. He acts helpless the rest of the time, but I love summer! Maybe see if he likes to grill. There's something about an open flame that can make a helpless frog into a prince!
  • Gee, great!

    I guess he didn't go to college...haha --- the joke being that college kids usually live on ramen and more ramen and then more ramen after that.:)
  • One of my requirements was a man who knew his way around the kitchen. DH actually cooked an awesome salmon dinner for me the night he asked me to be exclusive. A way to a woman's heart is through her stomach I guess because I said yes :-)

    Haha thie for me!
  • My husband is the grill master but he can't cook on a stove to save his life. I LOVE to cook and bake. Our agreement is I cook and he does the dishes. Which works out well because i hate doing dishes.
