a)Woman buys food
b)Woman makes salads, prepares side dishes, BBQ sauces, and desert.
c)Woman makes a quick marinade because Man "forgot".
d) Man puts meat on BBQ.
e)Woman gets plates and cutlery from the kitchen.
f) Man talks with friend, woman reminds that meat is already burning.
g)Man says thanks and orders another beer from his wife at the occasion.
h)Man takes meat from grill.
i)Man hands over the meat to the woman, relieves her from the burden of carrying the beer.
j) Woman puts meat, plates, cutlery, napkins, glasses, bread and sauces on the table.
k)Everyone eats.
l)Woman gets more beer for her husband.
m)Woman collects plates and glasses, makes the dish-washing and cleans the grill.
n)Everyone thanks the man for the delicious meal.
o)Man pats his wife, asking her how she liked not having to cook for once.
p)Man doesn't get sex for a week.
q)Man marvels about the mystery of women.

You know a woman??

[Flubber]

I clean as I cook. By the time dinner is served, 90% of the dishes are clean, stacked neatly in the sink or in the dishwasher.
.

EXACTLY-- My wife has never understood that.

Its the same as laundry. I'll pop stuff into the washer or dryer each day between doing other stuff. IF I watch ANY TV, I'll fold anything that was in the dryer. She "didn't have time" even though I know she watched "Dancing with with Batchelor Idol in the Dark"


Ahhh-women--gotta love em

I love how this unnamed woman requires no explanation; BK just assumes a woman will be around to clean up after him.

[Felch]

"Woman, get me a beer!"

"Woman, clean my scrotum with your tongue!"

"Woman, get me another beer!"

Really, I think BK is smarter than the rest of us put together. If you just call her "Woman!" you'll never screw up an call her your ex's name or anything.

And she doesn't mind. Go figure. She happens to quite like bbqs.

Everytime you see that you should be thinking, "totally hot chick who's name is X."

I do my own laundry too. I don't like not knowing where that favorite shirt is, then finding it crumpled in the bottom of a laundry basket and going "Clean and wrinkly or still dirty?".


don't get me wrong -- I love my wife. She's just not big on organization.

That is interesting Rah,

My wife and I also cook every other week.

But, we started with the non-cook, doing the dishes, but I changed that rule since she is way too messy of a cook and I was tired of cleaning up after her, so we went with cook and clean for a week.

However, I usually grill during the warm months here in Texas (pretty much 9 months, LOL) fairly often so, I generally cook more than her.

Also, I'm a way better cook than she is. (Due to the fact that I was a cook in high school/ college) I don't get frazzled in the kitchen with timing, whereas she does.
