Men Make Dinner Day

You think this is ridiculous,

don’t you?

And yet, there’s a webpage –

so it must be sensible and serious!

 Men cook dinner….

The ladies are jumping with excitement.

 The men are shuddering.

But, men!

The webpage lists ten top reasons

for cooking today.

And, they are pretty funny!

You can still wear a tool belt –

just chuck a spatula in it!

 Cook something with beer

in the recipe!

Blenders and what not are noisy –

 you won’t hear the kids fighting

or playing the recorder!

You could cook a dessert

that lets you use a propane torch!

But, there are rules…

So, he has to do the shopping

(preferably with a list),

the preparation & cooking

 must require more than one utensil!

He can’t ask for help!

He can wear an apron.

He must wash as he goes

and put everything away.

He cannot be in control

of the remote.

 He must set the table –

nicely, with candles.

Man cannot gloat

more than three times

and the dog

cannot be secretly fed any food,

After he’s cleaned up,

he gets the remote back.

(I enjoyed the webpage.

It’s actually pretty funny…

and yet, Oh so true!

Good luck

staying out of the kitchen today, Ladies!)

PS:I grew up regularly eating

my Father’s dinners.

Apologies to all male cooks!
