Barbecue Night

This was posted by a friend of mine and it's pretty funny. Not that Luke would ever come to the conclusion at the end, but it's still a pretty good laugh. :)

Barbecue Season Is Coming!

After the long months of cold and winter, we will soon be coming up to summer and BBQ season. Therefore it is important to refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking as it's the only type of cooking a real man will do, probably because there is an element of danger involved.

When a husband volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:

Routine...

1) The wife buys the food.
2) The wife makes the salad, prepares the vegetables, and makes dessert.
3) The wife prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces,

and takes it to the DH who is lounging beside the grill - drink in hand.

Here comes the important part:

4) THE HUSBAND PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.

More routine....

5) The wife goes inside to organize the plates and cutlery.
6) The wife comes out to tell the husband that the meat is burning.. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another drink while he deals with the situation.


Important again:

7) THE HUSBAND TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WIFE.


More routine.....

8) The wife prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins,
sauces and brings them to the table.
9) After eating, the wife clears the table and does the dishes.

And most important of all:

10) Everyone PRAISES the HUSBAND and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.

11) The husband then asks the wife how she enjoyed "her night off." And, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that

there's just no pleasing some women....?
