    My husband doesn't like chicken (my favorite), would prefer not to eat pork and hates vegetables and fish. That leaves us good old beef and potatoes. Sooo, he eats a lot of PB&J and I eat all of the above. LOL Actually, we have spaghetti about once a week, omelettes for dinner as well as pancakes. You gotta be creative with a picky person. There's always the take out menu drawer.

    After getting the comment This is the 3rd time today I have had fish *(He is a truck driver) I started calling each AM and asking what he wanted.
    Answers:
    Whatever
    Just Stir up Something
    Got any?_________ (NO)
    Now I just Stir up Something and add some Whatever
    If he doesn't want it he can have a cheese sandwich....
    Really ticks me off when I have dinner ready and on the plate and he will sit it down on the coffee table and says I will eat it later I am used to cold food. Last time he did it (ribeye, garlic potatoes and peas)I said, "If that plate is not empty when I get done eating Gracie(our Dobe) gets it. It cost to much to get cold." He was done before me (haha)

    We have the same type conversation. But we decided someone might get rich if they open a restaurant that is called "I don't care or I don't know.". They would have to serve whatever.

    Whenever my boyfriend is home for supper we have this conversation
    bf:what do you want for supper?
    me:I don't know, what are you making?
    bf:What do you want?
    me:what are you making?
    bf:I don't know, what do you want?

    Inside I laugh everytime. I never think about what I'm going to make. I do almost all of the cooking and I just make whatever. I don't care what anyone else wants....if they want to eat, they will have what I made. He likes to plan things a little more and I can't think that far ahead. I work full time, have to get one kid from daycare, one kid from my mom's house, and another has to get picked up an hour later at school. I really don't have time to think about it, as long as we eat...that's good. :)

    SO funny. Mine is "Where do you want to eat?
    Oh any where is fine you pick.
    OK let's go eat CHinese,
    No I don't want that.....on and on. SO funny.

    When I cook, I make the meal and he eats. Otherwise it's to each his own. LOL

Once in awhile he will ask me to fix something, and then I will, but he finds it hard to not tell me how to do it. He knows I do a better job than him, but since he has started cooking and watching Foodnetwork, he thinks he is a gourmet cook.LOLOLOLOL OMG! Some of the c--p he puts on the table!! But, I will eat a little of whatever it is, I don't want to go back to cooking every meal!
    Carol, who made the lovely pecan pie,? you were telling us about at Thanksgiving. now that was making my mouth water, and I was going to ask for the recipe , but thought better not as it is probably a family secret. :) Pecan pie is not a dessert we have in UK . Eileen :(

    Mainly we choose what's for supper together, if we have fish one night, it will be meat the next and so, we do the food shopping together so a lot of the decisions are made at the point of purchase, then I mostly make the sugestion as to what we should have on the day, he is not difficult to please and always says that was lovely, he used to cook a lot, but now he is a waiting for hip replacement surgery and in a lot of pain, so can't stand for long periods in the kitchen cooking. I don't mind cooking as it gives me something to do now that I am retired.

    Must be a guy thing, right! Same happens here, you might say then, well, if you have no suggestions, you don't get to complain about whatever I decide to make! Works for me!

    After reading all of these, I'm reminded of a conversation I had with my late mother not long after William and I were married...

    Me: Hi Mama!
    Her: Hi Sweetheart...*pause* What's that noise in the background?
    Me: William's doing the dishes.
    Her: Why?
    Me: It's his job.
    Her: You must have cooked a good dinner!
    Me: No...he cooked.
    Her: Then why is he doing the dishes???
    Me: Cuz it's his job?
    Her: Charlene LEE!! Put William on the phone, I'm going to give him my permission to BEAT you!!

    :lol:
