DP never uses the right utensil for the job - LTB? [Lighthearted]

[Tizzlebizzle]

So this is a pan of onions to go with hotdogs for tea - hotdog bun and kid's plate for scale!!

Why, when we have at least 6 suitable sauce or frying pans in the drawer, is he using a pan designed to fry a single egg to cook onions for 4 people????

He does it with everything- teaspoons to eat pudding, a paring knife to cut bread, tiny bowl to mix ingredients so they go all over the worktop, same for whopping cream so it takes forever as no air gets in.

AIBU to LTB?

Tizzlebizzle l'm liking both those sticky endings, l'll pm you my town name, we'll meet in the square, l will slide a newspaper under your arm as we pass with his picture inside if lve not already panned him to death with one of my first ever 'good' set of matching pans that he has scratched . Wear a plastic knife in your top pocket so l know its you .

@BiddyPop and @Magicstar1 maybe! In any case I've found his Christmas present!!

@RomaineCalm wow! He sounds dangerous

Agent @Bahhhhhumbug the seagulls fly at midnight

Hahaha, l just nearly woke him up laughing

Received and understood-the penguin has landed

@Bahhhhhumbug where were you? I've just snapped a fish slice in half opening a bottle of beer in the Welwyn Garden City town square???

love it. It annoys me too when we've a full range and he grabs a fork instead of a whisk or instead of the pasta spoon

My partner gets super angry when I use the wrong utensil then thinks its OK to use the wrong one himself.

DH is master of the multiple pan use when one will do. He also likes using the biggest chopping knife.
However I'm the one whose told off for using a carving knife to chop veg. My retort is that he's used all the other knives and not washed them.
He does get very precious about his cheese knife. We had a lot of relatives over for lunch and our dining room was packed, think tube train in rush hour. DH jumps up, squishes past people, clambers over people to get "something important we've forgotten".
Having trampled various relatives he comes back proudly brandishing the cheese knife. He nearly ended up with its twin prongs shoved up his nostrils. We had sharp knives available, but not the cheeseknife
Gash.

Gash? Gaah! Stupid auto cucumber.

CigarsofthePharoahs is the auto cucumber to be finely sliced with the cheese knife?

My DHTB is a nightmare in the kitchen and he once told me off for using a cheese grater the wrong way.. I still to this day don't understand how you use a cheese grater incorrectly. Maybe a MNer can explain the correct cheese grating procedure?

My DH uses cereal bowls for soup and heating up baked beans/custard in the microwave (I only "like" baked beans heated in a pan but that's a funny quirk of mine), we moved house recently and I unpacked a spoon rest and he said he didn't know what it was................... Milk pans are used for anything, doesn't see the relevance of an ice cream scoop when any spoon will do, even when spoons get bent and wrecked.

auto cucumber
I've got a mental image of a cucumber on little wheels.

I like teaspoons for pudding. Makes it last longer.

He is BU to think a hotdog is a suitable tea!

Sorry Tizzle

l think MI5 MFI are onto us, l was being followed so had to walk straight past you.

YABVVU not eating dessert with a teaspoon ;-)
Makes it last longer...

If this winds up Mumsnet users then I'm not surprised that there is so much 'anxiety', it's hardly world-shattering, is it?

My ex would grab the bread knife to cut up a steak on his dinner plate. Any metal cake tin was good for roasting potatoes in a vat of oil.
He buttered bread with a spoon.
He used tea towels to mop spills off the floor.
He then used kitchen roll to dry crockery.
Any packets were left as if a wild bear had opened it - a big hole gouged in the top and then abandoned on the worktop.

I can feel my blood pressure rising!

Not my Dh, my Ds.
I caught him boiling spaghetti in a sauce pan you'd use for boiling eggs.
It's the SMALLEST pan in the house!

Why? Why? Why?

Anne my husband mops spills with teatowels it drives me nuts and I buy the cheap ones from IKEA now.

Any metal cake tin was good for roasting potatoes in a vat of oil

😧 I thought DH using METAL SPOONS on the expensive cake tins was bad enough but ye God’s xx

Tbf I do that and I'm of the fairer sex.

He buttered bread with a spoon.

Just no. Total infidel.

Mine does the same and equally applies the same logic so suitcases. He thinks we can go holiday with a wheelie cabin case between three.

@Bahhhhhumbug when I was a child I used to say I wanted to be a spy and work for MFI - I think you're my twin!

@tillytrotter1 did you miss the "light hearted" in the title?

@Fresta ooh I love hotdog tea! We had 4 each smothered in ketchup and mustard with buttery corn on the cob and coleslaw on the side.

the mini-saucepan with chopped onions to the top, put a big smile on my face OP (the first of the day ).

i'd love to have seen him actually "cook" them though!

could you not have taken a secret video!

AnneProths post also made me laugh.
