Lucky for you I love to cook and spend the better part of my day in the kitchen when I get the chance -- garlic anything is my specialty.
Heck, I even spend most of my time there barefoot.
Well. You only need one more thing to make my day complete. Of course your husband must be applauded for properly training you. It takes years of work to get a good woman. :) HA!
He's not allowed in my kitchen when I'm cooking, and when I'm not cooking, he's allowed to pass through to the living room and maybe stop for chips.
When we first got married I explained I have a few simple rules -- I do all the cooking, he pays for all the groceries. He's to give me his dinner request first thing in the morning, not change his mind, and not kibbitz on the spices. If I thought it needed more oregano, I would have used more oregano.
I'll be glad when football season starts so I can tell him to go watch a game instead of trying to sneak in and add cayenne pepper to the sauce.

That's funny, because it hasn't so far.
"Actually, I trained him.

Actually. It's the illusion that you're in charge. But it give you ladies comfort. So we figure...why rock the boat? Especially when you have a woman that can cook.
Now with my wife, I lay down the law! Here's how it's gonna be and it better be done this way or else! :) HA!
Actually, she comes up with the meals and I eat what's served. In the same notion, she won't cook what I don't like. So it works out. And I can't wait for football season either.
It does appear that your husband lacks his backbone. I can see I need to have a couple of conversations with him to get you straightened out. He'll soon discover how right things can be in the world. :) HAHAHA!
You don't seriously think I would eat his cooking, do you? This is the man who thinks adding milk to Campbell's Tomato Soup makes it tomato bisque.
Then he adds oregano and cayenne.
"You don't seriously think I would eat his cooking, do you? This is the man who thinks adding milk to Campbell's Tomato Soup makes it tomato bisque."
No. I meant get you in line. Remember, it's all your pleasure to cook his meals. All of your adoration and affection should go into that meal. After all...He has spent all day bringing home the bacon. The least he could do is get it cooked his way. And without any lip. :) HA!
And garlic. Don't forget the garlic.
Now you're getting it. With you ladies, sometimes it takes a little explaining. :) HA! Just kidding!
It is nice to see a FReeper with a sense of humor. I appreciate it.
