I am so tired of it being either me cooking, or going out to pick up fast food. DH is a competent cook, there is NO reason why he can't cook once in a blue moon.
I came into the living room and say "I'm getting hungry are you?"
DH: yeah a little
Me: So what do you want to do for dinner?
DH: I dont know, I thought you were gonna make something.
Me: I'm glad you were waiting on ME to cook something. *Storms off*
I SWEAR this man would starve before he decides to cook. I'm not gonna make anything, I will eat these teddy grahams I have by the bed before I go in the kitchen and cook anything.

LOL, pooping dh in the head.
Oh Lord. this too. Although I don't complain because he can't clean good enough, and I will end up doing it over anyways.
Glad to know I'm not the only one with dog hair issues. DH swears hes gonna shave my Pekingeses bald when LO starts to crawl.
WOW! DH came in here asking AGAIN if I was gonna cook actually he said "whats up dog?"
I looked at him like he was crazy and asked him when the last time he cooked was, can you remember?
he said he wasnt good at measuring, I reminded him of the frozen chicken breasts, and the george foreman grill. He got the picture, and is making dinner
my DS did make dinner last night, he grilled some burgers. that is about the extent of his cooking, though, so I am slightly jealous of those of you with good cooks for husbands. i am trying to teach him, but I still find him doing ridiculous things if I don't supervise very carefully.
such as: entire syrup bottle in the microwave; trying to stick frozen hamburger patty on grill without thawing it out at all; not reading directions on ANYTHING so I find stuff way overdone or burned because he just "guessed" on how long something needs to be done.
he is trying, though. i give him that!
same here, DH is one hell of a griller, he can cook pretty much anything on a grill, put him in front of the stove and he looses his mind! One time I had him help me make baked mac and cheese and he confused teaspoons and tablespoons and put 2 TABLESPOONS of pepper into cheese sauce, it looked like a colony of ants committed suicide in it! So, I would rather cook any day instead of him trying.
I was thinking that some of you ladies really need to stop with the passive aggressive behavior and dropping "hints" to your clueless husbands. You might actually have to sit down and talk to them *gasp* and tell them you want help and that from now on they'll be cooking dinner (and cleaning up afterwards) ___ number of times per week. There is no reason that they can't help out around the house, and there is REALLY no reason to continually get upset about it when you could fix the problem by having a discussion.
