I got lucky, and also married a man who likes to cook, and is really great at it, BUT the kitchen is a true disaster afterwards. I am not the best about consistently cleaning it up, though I am trying to do better. However, that said, I do most of the carpentry around the house (it's a typical Vermont 30-year project) and the vetting during lambing.

I must admit, though, unless I missed something, that I do feel there IS a problem Karen presented. WHY does her husband cook occaisionally for himself and the kids, but NOT her??!! I am more than a bit appalled at such behavior. Am I out of line here in a thread that has become a fairly happy bit of persiflage? And how does one handle something about that? I know someone mentioned talking about division of chores, but there are skills everyone should have and be ready to share with their family at least!
