To think DW serves dinner in a non-optimal way

[TheRevengeOfMrGrumpy]

Sunday lunch for example:

Lift plate1, peas, carrots spuds, meat etc
Lift plate2, peas, carrots spuds, meat etc

Takes ages.

When I do it (majority of time):

Lift carrots - plate 1, plate 2, plate 3, plate 4, plate 5
Lift peas - plate 1, plate 2, plate 3, plate 4, plate 5

Seems much much faster and food is hotter when it arrives on table.

[sausagesandwich34]

you do it then

simples!

[HollyBerryBush]

go out for lunch

sorted

[LaurieFairyCake]

Well done on starting the pettiest thread known to man

It doesn't matter, scrap the dinner, get fish and chips and shag instead.

[Dothraki]

sausage

[Bluestocking]

So offer to dish up yourself then?

[nurseneedshelp]

Seriously????

[ceeveebee]

As OP says he usually does it himself so not sure why all the snide comments, if OP was posting about DH I'm sure they'd be lots of agreement

And I agree with you, she's wasting valuable eating time

[flow4]

In the time you wasted took writing this MrGrumpy, you could have prepared tomorrow's meals too...

[LadyBeagleEyes]

He does do it the majority of the time.
It says in the Op.
I do it your way Op.
I think this was supposed to be lighthearted wasn't it?

[galletti]

dh does method one - works for us! Especially for me, as he does it!

[BerthaKitt]

You remind me of Jason Thunderpants. Are you him? Is he you?

As for the pressing issue of serving up lunch, Y may or may not BU, I will have to conduct a timed experiment at dinner tomorrow and get back to you.

[MorrisZapp]

Yanbu

That would annoy me.

[TrinityRhino]

I do your method

easier to divvy it up the way I want between big and little people and big and little appetites

[TheRevengeOfMrGrumpy]

No, not Jason Thunderpants, but I loved some of his threads.

I show her the optimal way, but she insists on doing it her long winded way.

[HeadfirstForHalos]

YANBU. I do it the sensible way too

[HeadfirstForHalos]

And my mil does it your wife's way!

Of course, for optimal serving speed, lob it all in a communal trough and dive in.

[ilovesooty]

Just liquidise everything and attach yourself to an IV.

[senua]

Surely the optimal way is to put it (once) in a servng dish and let people help themselves. Many hands make light work.
It's never to soon to introduce the DC to the concept of delegation.

[ceeveebee]

And create 3 or 4 extra dishes to wash?
I only use serving dishes when we have guests. And I've read research saying people eat more if food served in dishes rather than plated up

[BegoniaBampot]

Shit, too much wine, I'm still trying to work it out!

[ElliesWellies]

So long as you warm the plates, I would have thought either is fine...

[StuntGirl]

I don't care how people serve it up as long as I get to eat it
