A Man's BBQOnce again, this is only a joke. So I don't need to hear any men whine about how they can cook or any woman whine how their men can cook. This is just all in good fun.
BBQ It's the only type of cooking a real man will do. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:
1) The woman buys the food.
2) The woman makes the salad, vegetables, and dessert.
3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill --drink in hand. Here comes the important part .....
4) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL. More routine....
5) The woman goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
6) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is burning. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another drink while he deals with the situation. Important again.
7) THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN. More routine.....
8) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauces, and brings them to the table.
9) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes. And most of all....
10) Everyone PRAISES the man and THANKS him for his cooking efforts.
11) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed "her night off." And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women

Actually, in my house, I do most of the cooking and grovery shopping, including all food prep. DW does the place setting, prsentation, and cleanup.
So I almost always get the praise for cooking. Sometimes she DOES cook though, and I have to try REALLY HARD to make sure everyone knows it so that she gets the credit. Otherwise, she whines forever.

You'll be glad to know that not all of us are this way. In my house, my girlfriend is the 'handyman' and I'm the 'housewife' ... I do cook, do laundry, dishes, etc., cuz my stepfather never showed me how to fix anything. My g/f didn't have her father around, so she ended up being the one in her house who learned how to repair everything.
