And still he doesn't do the clean-up. Well, unless you call balancing the bowl on the divider between the two sinks and adding water to the unpopped seeds.

heh heh
boys..... i just love 'em! yup!!

yah..... the mac and cheese cracked me up.....
at our house we call meals in a box "boy-food".....

however..... i must say boyfrinn is very self-sufficient especially due to his ex never ever having had a clue about how "those things" [pick any subject] work ..... he always had to do for himself.... which means i can come home from the office and he has our supper allllllllll ready....... gawd i love my guy.....

You are very lucky. Mike could easily be self-sufficient. He does know how to cook, and he makes the greatest homemade pies. And his Chili is to dye for. I wish he would do it more often.

I wanted our kids, especially our sons to be self-sufficient so we had the one night a week you cook chore. They picked what they wanted to make and on their turn they would make the whole dinner. Our daughter was great and made these great 5 course meals. But our oldest son, well if he was making Pork Chops, that is what we would get, a Pork Chop. Took awhile to get him to understand the full meal thing. But now he is a great cook and his wife has thanked me many times for making him learn. He is also great at helping her around the house. Very proud of him, he is one of our greatest accomplishments.
However, our youngest son hates to cook, even the boxed men food. If you can't take it out of the freezer and pop it into the micro then it is two much work. He did inherit his dad love for the BBQ though and is more than willing to pop the steaks on the grill. All of them. LOL Kind of like his brother, 1 course meals. LOL He will change though, he's only 23, young and single minded. "Women's Work" is not on his mind right now. LOL

sounds as though you have a very good selection of alternate cooks eh!?

ya done good.... now you can put on your fuzzy-feet, relax and let the babies take care of you!

.... and .... a man who makes & bakes pies gets a big hoorah!
MMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmm...pie.....

we finally found a spot in durham with all you can eat crabbie-legs..... we have not been yet ...... but we sought it out for the next time the kids get to visit nc.....

after B's heavily-buttered corn on the cob flew out of her hands, slid down the wall and splashed onto the hardwood floor we figured it was best [next time] to eat messy stuff at someone else's square footage!! teeheheheheheeee
