    Nope. She does get upset if I don't make her a cup of tea, though. Husbands are supposed to make the tea and it says so in the Bible. Hebrews - not she brews.

    Tom, it kind of makes you wonder how long ol' Slart had that one in the holster waiting for an opportunity like this one to sling it out, lol!

    Yes---and that sort of thing tends to be difficult to work into a conversation---it frequently requires great patience.

    I once waited almost 14 months to use defenestration in a reply to Didge on another site.  It was worth it.

    An amusingly, the world of the day on Blurtit a few days ago was concatenation.  Interestingly enough, combining "he" and "brew" is an example of that---although admittedly it's stretching things a bit since Hebrew has a different etymology.

    Who gives a rat's about etymology when punning? Way to ruin a bad joke.

    He biru - ancient Egyptian, roughly translates as "cave man". It was actually an insult.

  • I like me a good sandwich. It just tastes better when my man makes it!

    True... everything just tastes better if someone else makes it.

  • Exactly! It also tastes better from my man's plate too, lol. He hates it when I do that.

    I can't remember many times having someone else make me a sandwich... usually if eating sandwiches just grabbing and go. 
    But I will pay for Subway... either Meatball or Sweet Onion Teriyaki Chicken.

    I married my wife when I was 37 and she was 30.  At that age, I knew how to cook and clean.  (I still do both, and of course, so does she.)  But my rule is:  You cannot have the last bite of my sandwich at the last moment, but I will make you one with as much care as I did mine if you want me to.

    Aww she is one lucky lady lol :) I have guys ask me 'do you know how to cook?' sometimes if I'm flirting a bit , and/or they are looking for a date or just to chat.. I'm thinking, that is one of the top questions you ask? LOL. If a man cooks or not is the last thing in compatiblity to me; kindness, honesty, humor.. THAT is what I want to know about ... I felt like saying, 'It is not 1925 where I'd be home cooking every day for you!!' Lol. I think it is very kind of a man to offer a woman a sandwich or meal, as you demonstrated T- ty for sharing and giving us hope that women don't have to be 'the cook'  :)

    I don't recall anyone making a sandwich for me.  I wouldn't want them to, so it's not a problem.  I'm particular about sandwiches and I don't eat them too often.  I eat more of them lately but use half a pita,  flour tortilla or French bread now.  That may why I seem to enjoy them these days.   And if I'm making one for myself, I don't mind making one for you as well.
