JP(22, brother, basement) thought today he would do me a HUGE favor and he would cook super. Proudly he began to assemble ingredients and move around the kitchen. Generally speaking JP+Kitchen = hurricane type destruction so Mac (19, JP’s employee/best friend)and I sat back to watch the chaos happen.
He started by putting four,12 inch Mennonite sausages on the George Foreman Grill. He then put approximately 30 Chicken Nuggets in the oven.
JP “we need that many because Madi will eat some too.”
Mac “ya maybe two total”
Me “not even two”
He ignored us and began pulling out the ingredients for scrambled eggs with ham and cheese. That was too much for me.
Me “NO NO NO you are not making eggs as well there is already enough food and you don’t have any vegetables”
JP “but the scrambled eggs are going to be gourmet with ham and cheese”
Mac “ I think we have enough”
JP “but I make great eggs”
Me “how about some snap peas and some carrots
JP “gross”
Me (in very disrespectful imitation of Chinese voice ) “You eat like free willy”
Mac ( in similarly disrespectful voice ) “you scare my wife”
JP (voice) “ you here four hour”
I forced them to eat some veggies as the meat fest cooked. Needless to say when it was all done I passed on the meal but Madi (1), Kyle (24, husband) and both boys seemed to really enjoy it. I guess there is a difference between what makes a good meal for men and women.
Mac told me he had quite a few chicken nuggets at your house when he came home last night. He neglected to tell me the whole story! LOL, what guys think is healthy cooking/eating is a mystery to me, too!
