Programming non-kitchen functional husband person to cook soup

[Guest guest]

Boot husband (or other non cooking partner) from couch. Program with simple

mushroom barley soup recipe, one command line at a time.

Note to programmer: glitch in program, make certain husband knows what

ingredients look like to prevent him tearing refrigerator and freezer apart for

pearl barley kept in canister on shelf.

Another note to programmer: Describe hardware needed for procedure. (vegetable

peeler, crock pot, paring knife and immersion blender.)

Instruct spouse on peeling carrot. Commend him on his excellent splatter

pattern of carrots all over the kitchen walls.

Yet another note to programmer: In the future, mark frozen containers of

vegetable broth so in the future the spouse does not have to go through 5,000

plastic freezer boxes of food to find the bleeping vegetable broth.

Instruct husband person how to clean, dice and saute mushrooms, onions, garlic.

Ignore sounds of all contents of knife drawer being dumped on floor and epithets

from cats, husband person and dogs.

Physically inspect jars of herbs before allowing husband person to put into

soup. Cinnamon and mushrooms are an odd combination.

Note to programmer: Remind functioning unit to actually plug in and turn ON the

crock pot.

Nod off while soup is simmering (hopefully) in crock pot.

Give husband person extra hugs and praise for not burning the house down,

slicing off a finger or other appendage.

Final note to programmer: Do NOT look at the kitchen. Do remind husband person

to refrigerate leftovers.

 

If all else fails, instruct spouse on opening of can of vegetarian vegetable

soup and use of microwave.

 

Love to all, Happy, safe and blessed New Year, Jeanne in GA

Hahaha...Jeanne see you are home. How did that soup turn out? Amen to having

to mark everything and give explicit directions. I do that and my hubby still

will say, where is it...often right in front of his nose (because I did not tell

him the exact location on the shelf or fridge location)...lol. Men..ya gotta

love 'em for trying.

 

Hope the New Year will bring you better health.

 

M.A.
