I'm so lucky as my husband does the cooking, we do argue about whose turn it is to choose the meal though.

Get well soon. I agree that men are not all they are cracked up to be but we must have (or have had) something of interest. When you feel a little better, ask you husband to get you a book from the library, say 'The Trouble with Women' by Jacky Fleming. I bought it for my wife and survived. Now, off to make dinner ...

And, it's the deciding that's the hard bit, isn't it? brew

wot are we married to the same man? Mine also only eats tinned peas and potatoes. He doesn't mind cooking and is quite good at it but he always wants me to 'decide'.

Have to say that Mr Roses is really good and often makes meals for me.

Anya wishing you well again, don't give up on either life or Gransnet.tchsmile
Have some soup , chicken soup is best with bits of bread in it.Then have a whisky with a drop of hot water. As we get older these things just take so long to go away, I have had (just gone) chest infections/catarrh / cough since late August! may be a record.

I'm not well. I just want to be left in peace to quietly die or post on GN, whichever is the lesser of two evils.

DH just asked what I want for tea. Told him I'm not hungry.

So next he asks what he can have for tea!

FFS we have a freezer full of food, can't he just go away and find something for himself.

Is it me, or are your DH's just as useless when your not there to .tell them what to do make suggestions? confused
