DH is bored, recovering from cancer treatment, and wants to return to work
He also thinks my cooking lately has been "lacking", so I have of course recommended that he takes up more of the cooking - this is apparently a bad idea, he doesn't want to.
He does like buying stuff and has bought an air fryer, spoken at length of its economy, energy saving and time saving potential and ability to supply a bountiful array of tasty healthful meals.
I have made the appropriate noises, sounds lovely, if you want to use an air fryer - then of course you can buy one.
It has arrived today, "d"h has lovingly unboxed, rearranged the kitchen for best effect (which I have pointed out is in the middle of the food prep area, and he has now moved to the blindingly obvious place to put it in the kitchen).
What should our first meal be I wonder aloud, as he excitedly shows the dishes available at the touch of a button.
"Oh, I thought you would be the one learning to use it"
Like fuckitty fuck I want to learn to use the bloody thing, the whole point was he'd practice using his brain to operate the bloody thing prior to going back to work!
I have told him that he must be aware that is the ultimate sexist trope, if I truly was in the 50s then I'd not be working all day today upstairs while him and the kids are busy watching netflix!
Apparently, if he does it, he will break it, and ruin it, which would be my fault.
Disclaimer dh is not completely recovered from brain surgery, but by christ AIBU?
