I totally meant resolution but that is how I used to say it so I like to celebrate my weird wordings sometimes
Just like how I used to say brefast... yeah that's breakfast But that's how it would just roll off my tongue and I miss it sometimes so once in a while I will say it wrong just because I like that word.
Anyway
new year - new "plan"
My plan for this new year is for me and my lover.
To share the kitchen more with him.
I have to allow him into the kitchen at lest once a week
I know usually goals with the kitchen include something like ( cook more for my lover )
Not me... my problem is that maybe because I am an only child or just trying to be a good lover...
I don't "share" the kitchen.
Every night I make dinner for Andrew
He asks if I need help and I will quickly say nope!
He had expressed his need to be in the kitchen more.
we used to cook together ( and we do a great job at it! )
but that was at his first house that I didn't feel comfortable using the kitchen without him there because he had roommates and all.
But now that we have had two houses that I have been able to call 'home'
I have taken over that part of the house.
I did it because I Love to cook and to make my lover happy.
I am old school in some ways and I believe that the woman does all the cooking and cleaning.
I also enjoy surprising him when it is time to sit at the dinner table
and I like to keep it a secret how I make my special food... is that wrong?
So my best Friend... my love... my soul mate has asked for me to "stop being such a perfect housewife and share the kitchen"
I know... this must be every girls dream having the man step in to help
But I feel I wont be doing my "duty"
But
Andrew made a great point, If we can share a kitchen together like we used to and we are able to get along we would take advantage of it.
He is right, I mean what other couple do you know that can both share the stop top at the same time!
I know... unheard of, but seriously, we do a great job when we do anything together
we make a great team, even when I do let him in the kitchen.
We are such a great team that we don't even need to speak. We just know what each other need and what our roles are in the kitchen.
Such as... I like when he does the meat part... that's "manly"... right?
....SO....
We will be bringing our own ideas into the kitchen this year of 2011
Our first meal to make together is in 10 days when he comes home from deployment.
we will be making .... get ready for this.....
fresh lobster and home made raviolis!
Yes we got a pasta maker for Christmas and we are going to make our own pasta "dough" or whatever it is and use the 3lbs of lobster meat that my mom got from the restaurant.
sounds delish? i know...
Now if only I didn't have to wait till the 12th to start our new goal
You are so good- I HATE cooking by myself in the kitchen! Gotta tell ya, some of our most fun times were direct results of cooking together- cant wait to see how it goes! And a recipe would be nice as well:-)
ReplyDeleteit will be amazing!!! You should share some recipes because I'm getting married and really need to learn to cook!
ReplyDeleteI'm the same way!! I always kick my boyfriend out of the kitchen and tell him I don't want any help. Maybe I should do this too and start letting him help a little.
ReplyDeleteSo funny, I am the same way with my fiance, when I'm cooking I just want to do everything myself and sometimes I forget that he wants to join in on the fun as well.Cute post!
