Sneaky things we do

A coworker and I were talking earlier today, and it is funny that we both did the same thing, and I was wondering what we ladies do to be sneaky and get our way around DH.  LOL

Mine was that sometimes I'll stay late at work, as to not have to cook... so take out it is.  =)

Re: Sneaky things we do

  • Ooooh I like this post.

    Sometimes I paint my nails so I get out of folding laundry or making up a new bed. "Awww.....but my nails are wet, sweetheart." Wink

  • oh I like this post too.

    Lets see. When I let the dog outside before we go to bed, I hurry and get in the shower so he has to get back up to let them in. (He caught onto that one after about the 6th time) lol 

    Or I'll get in my pj's right after ordering a pizza so that I don't have to go out and get it. Thats my best one. Big Smile

  • When I really don't feel like cooking, I announce that I'm making tuna salad sandwiches for dinner... Works like a charm every time! 
  • If I don't feel like cooking, I ask DH to make dinner and request a specific dish. He always says that I know how to make it too, but I reply by saying that it always comes out better when he makes it. He loves it.

  • Oh, we have a fancy expresso machine that is DH's (WAY before we got married).  Everytime he wants cuban coffee, I tell him I'm making it in the stovetop expresso maker (typical Cuban gadget), so he goes and makes it himself (he makes amazing cortadito).  He tried to teach me to make it, but it hasn't been perfected yet.

  • When I buy something, I buy DH something as well so that he doesn't think about what I bought.  I love it.

  • Morning ladies! Well my darling hates anything that is healthy or good for him so I am constanstly sneaking in things that are good for him. The other night I made him this very hearty indian dish and he asked me if it had meat (it was really thick) .. so I said "yes" little does he know that it was completely vegetarian with lots of beans and tomatoes.

    Another thing is that he hates mushroom (according to him) .. little does he know that he eats mushrooms at least once a week and loves it!! muahaha!!

  • It posted my reply before I could finish typing...

    I hate making the bed. Our bedroom set is DH's. He got it before we got married. The matress is so thick that it is really hard to put the fitted sheet all the way around the mattress. When we first got married, DH got stuck dressing the bed one day and he did such a great job that I always tell him he does it better than me. hehe
