Outdoor Barbecuing: The Only Type of Cooking some Husbands Will Do

Thanks to Linda Crosby in Virginia for sending this!

In preparation for the traditional kick-off to summer, here's a little humor.

When a husband volunteers to do such cooking, the following chain of events is put into motion.

1. The wife goes to the store.
2. The wife fixes the salad, vegetables, and dessert.
3. The wife prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils, and takes it to the man, who is lounging beside the grill, drinking a tall, cold beverage.
4. The husband places the meat on the grill.
5. The wife goes inside to set the table and check the vegetables.
6. The wife comes out to tell the husband that the meat is burning.
7. The husband takes the meat off the grill and hands it to the wife.
8. The wife prepares the plates and brings them to the table.
9. After eating, the wife clears the table and does the dishes.
10. The husband asks the wife how she enjoyed "her night off". And upon seeing her annoyed reaction concludes that it is just impossible to please some women!

We all know that many husbands do help with cooking, so please take this as humor.  But then again, if the shoe fits ...
