The Chef for the Gonzaga University Athletic Dept.

[MrPeabody]

is cooking dinner for the wife and me right now.

He's my stepson and he's down here from Spokane visiting for the weekend.

Not sure what he's making, something with chicken.

I love it when other people cook for me.
That's pretty much always.

Yeah, he lived with us for awhile years ago while he worked at the local country club. I thought this is going to be great, I can have him cook anything I want from my favorite restaurant. He did, but the downside is you find out that chefs don't do dishes.

I will cook you a great meal, but I sure as hell ain't cleaning up after. That's for the ones who watched me cook for them.

i'm doing it wrong.

i cook dinner each evening and clean up when done (load dishwasher, wash hand wash stuff, Mrs. DAB dries).

i should talk to the boss....

I'll oad the dishwasher occasionally and maybe do some pots & pans, but that is rare.
I don't expect Mrs Jeff to do construction or yard work though.

Since retirement, I decided to take on all dishwashing and laundry, since I'm not good for much else.

The wife does occasionally dry and put dishes away. None of it's really a big chore when there's just the two of us and the kitchen is pretty small.

Here's how to solve your problem: After dinner, just say to your wife, "You wash, and I'll break."

I don't get why people feel the compulsive need to dry dishes. That's what a dish rack is for. No matter how wet they are, by the next day, yep, always dry.

Bill, lazy guy

That's what I usually do, but when there are lots of dishes, limited space means drying some so I can wash more.

[Kerrmudgeon]

.....me too. I treat them to my culinary expertise and they do the scullery work. Fair is fair.

[ft laud mike]

Try having a wife who....after I have washed and placed them in the drying rack..will come home and put them in the washer...wtf? I was trying to save some $$
