[QUOTE="witzend, post: 185957, member: 99"] My house is the same way. 25 years we have been together, and once - [i]once[/i]! - I asked husband to get me unsalted butter for a recipe. Every time now, unsalted butter. And he started to buy everything else unsalted, too. No, I don't salt [i]anything[/i] I cook, so we aren't a big salt family. There's salt on the table. So, now we get unsalted tomato sauce, unsalted vegetables, unsalted everything! I don't even bother sending him to the store. Or maybe that was his plan! It's not just the shopping, it's the yard work. Do you know how many years I have babied my lawn along just to have him scalp it? He'll mow it for a few weeks or maybe a month (grass grows really well in the Pacific NW) and then all of a sudden, he'll lower the blade as low as it will go and he'll cut straight into the dirt. We live on a sloped lot, with lots of little hillocks in the back. Every year. It's the laundry. "I thought you washed everything in hot with bleach!" Especially if [i]their[/i] work clothes aren't in the load. It's everything! I swear they do it to keep you from asking them to do anything! And then they act like you're the only genius on the block who can figure out how to use the vacuum. Harumph! [/QUOTE]
