Meal instructions

My Dad and I did dinner tonight without Mom. Does that mean she simply left us on our own?

Not at all!

Not only did she provide food, but also left us a sticky note saying what we should eat (soup, chicken, squash, cukes & carrots and coleslaw).

My dad's response? This is not what men do. Men do not plan elaborate meals for themselves. They open the fridge and consume - the heating stage being optional. And naturally I totally agree with him. As people who know me will testify, I'd rather eat an item cold than wait 2 minutes for the microwave to be available.

Besides, the big bowl of candy and bannana on the table looked like a fine meal to me.

In the end we ate what we were supposed to, and even heated it up.

It was all very tasty. Thanks mom for the food and dad for the entertainment.
