Housekeeping Husband

June 14, 2006

My friend’s husband is always telling her that housekeeping would be
a snap if only she would organize her time better. Recently he had a
chance to put his theory into practice while his wife was away.

When I popped in one evening to see how he was managing, he cried,
“I made a cake, frosted it, washed the kitchen windows, cleaned all
the cupboards, scrubbed the kitchen floor, walls and ceiling and
even had a bath.”

I was about to concede that perhaps he was a better manager than his
wife, when he added sheepishly,

“When I was making the chocolate
frosting, I forgot to turn off the mixer before taking the beaters
out of the bowl, so I had to do all the rest.”

  1. Reminds me of my mom’s first real cooking experience. She washed okra/ladyfingers after cutting them. The stickest situation she was ever been in.
