    My wife used to think that a man who knew how to work on cars was sexy until I built a racecar in the garage, and she saw the parts invoices.

    She also used to think a man who cooks is sexy until she learned that I am a GOOD cook and consequently that means I don’t want help, I want you the fuck out of my kitchen, don’t sample the ingredients they are weighed and portioned for a damn reason and if you put sweet baby rays on a $50 cut of steak again it will be the last time I ever cook for you.

      I’m the primary cook in my family, and my wife loves it. But she also is a fantastic sous chef. She helps me out with everything.

      It’s awesome having an extra set of hands in the kitchen and is also great bonding time.

        My wife has 3 university degrees, she is significantly smarter than I am. She also reached under the blade when I was cutting to get a piece of carrot to snack on…

        I can’t do a good job and teach and watch for harebrained dumbassery at the same time.

      Hey I’m the good cook husband with a car problem too.

      My wife never wanted to help cook though, she loves that I take it on by myself most times.

      And I get the kitchen mostly to myself (though I’m sharing it with my son more now, which is slower, but pretty fun).

        I taught my 4yo daughter to answer “Yes Chef!” When helping me in the kitchen. Its pretty adorable.

          My 6 yo did “yes boss” for a while. But that’s less common lately. He still does it when we’re working in the garage sometimes though and it’s the best.
