Since I'm not hungry sometimes i forget that others need to eat. This afternoon my husband kept taking about going out to eat and i couldn't understand why he already wanted to go to eat. It was 12:00!

I have a husband that doesn't cook and 3 kids that have hollow legs. Although the snacking has gone down tremendously they never let me forget LOL But, I completely understand what you are saying. This post made me smile

I get some sort of high from cooking for others now! Maybe smelling the food helps. Lol!

I have four children. They don't ever let me forget to feed them because they eat non-stop! My husband needs to forget sometimes!

I told my kids to make a list on any and all food or snacks we might need as I have NO WAY of knowing what we are out of. If they don't, not my problem.

I just got in to trouble for this today! My husband is not happy right now because I'm not putting enough thought into dinners for them....

I was the primary cook in the house. I still cook once in a while, but not nearly as much as I used to.. My wife said the other night "I'm hungry" I replied by telling her how the knobs on the stove magically make fire.. She wasn't impressed with that answer..

Did you tell him to read your mind right after he said that?

I wish I could... Like he is seriously mad right now

0_o It all started because he wanted tri tip and potatoes for dinner tonight (the skinny bastard)

And it's f**king 90 degrees!!! So then he's like you know you don't work you could at least treat this ( the house kids and him) like a full time job...

I'm so mad and we never actually fight that I'm beside myself right now!!

He's getting his meat and potatoes and like a good "housewife" I just noticed 4 overripe bananas and I'm making banana bread too.

Ok I hear the 1950's calling me gotta go..

Ps I'm REALLY MAD! And I think hurt... But mostly MAD.

Ugh, my husband tried pulling this once. I said "oh? You think I'm not doing anything?" So I went on strike. It took two nights of him making Cereal for dinner (he can't cook at ALL, like he doesn't even know how to make an egg) and washing his own clothes and he apologized. Maybe it was extreme, but he pissed me off!

JessicaAnn - your post made me laugh out loud. When I was growing up a neighbor's husband said something similar to her and she went on strike too. I remember her sitting out on her front lawn in a lawn chair at dinner time, reading a magazine & drinking coffee. Her husband and 4 kids were left to fend for themselves. She did this for about 4 nights and after that she was always treated like a queen.

Sometimes I just send my husband out to get dinner - salad with chicken for me and he can get whatever. Tonite I think he's getting a pizza!!

Well they are all fed, fat and happy.....

Well they are all fed' date=' fat and happy.....

You should tell him to cook himself. Prior to going out on disability, my wife who owns a bakery and I split up all of the household chores. Before I helped my wife start her business, she was unemployed for a short time and we still broke up the household chores. I shop and do laundry ( I'm better at it than she, she says it smells better and is softer when i do it.)and she cooks (she is a better cook) and cleans.

I would be angry to at my spouse. It is way too hot to cook today. But what an NSV to not think that much about dinner.

You are a good husband lol. I was the one who spoiled my husband when we were dating and moved in together, so now he expects it. I don't think he's cleaned more then 5 times in the last 5 years we've been together lol

I've found this to be true, too! We were recently on vacation, and I swear, that's all they wanted to do was eat! It takes so much time (and money when you are vacationing in expensive cities) that is just sort of pissed me off. I'm really happy I'm not worried about eating all the time anymore. It made me a little sad, too, because they are young adults/teens, and I made them that way, thinking the thrill of the trip was to find the best food. They don't know any other way.
