Regarding the majority of married couples I know, the wife would never
notice if the husband was gone if:
There was a tape recorder that announced every 5 minutes....
Yes of course you are right Dear..
No that dress doesn't make you look fat, you look perfect...
Of course your mother can live with us...
Whatever you say Dear.
And leave his wallet beside it with the checkbook and credit cards.

Lots of couples do that. But, I think the previous comment referred to the
wife being especially good at CREATING more bills.

Cez Odom a husband is a god at the barbecue pit and a devil when he's
called upon.
OBFood: We got some really odd looking chunks of beef labeled "chuck
roast" with our 1/4 steer (grass-fed) -- something about an Amish
butcher, IIRC. I marinated two roasts in lemon juice, nam pla*,
thyme, sambal, molasses, garlic, and black pepper last night. They're
in the smoker pit as I type. Have been for about four hours. The
fire is lump charcoal and pecan shells. I've never tried this before
with beef cuts like this. Wish me luck.

outfit that's marketing "extra virgin" fish sauce. Is this a great
country or what?

Hell no ... I take care of the bills. And my inlaws bills. Of course,
that's
pretty much a done deal since they died last year, but that's not the point.
All my job. Mr MBA wants nothing to do with the whole thing.

Ah, yes, but which country? :-) My beloved local Vietnamese place here
puts the "Squid" brand nuoc mam on the table. It is produced in
Vietnam, is said to be one of the best and is that same "extra virgin"
fish sauce, obtained from the first draining. It is transparent and
almost colourless. I like it, but not being a connoisseur of fish
sauce, I don't know if it is really one of the best.

Not here - both our paychecks wind up in the same checking account and
the DH happily ignores me while I do twice a month bill paying.

That's how it's worked in Clan Ranger since SWMBO and I first started
dating.

The Republic of Texas. (aka ROT)

I'm not a con-noisier of nuoc mam either. Nam pla, neither. I do
make noise about it from time to time, but I try not to be noisier
than most. It's hard, but I do try.
From what I've read here and elsewhere, I conclude that almost no real
Vietnamese fish sauce is available near the ROT, alas. I usually
settle for "Three Crab" brand, which is made in Thailand. It is a
deep caramel color and far from transparent. It may be from the
penultimate draining, but I'm not sure what "penultimate" means this
evening. Something to do with a neap tide, maybe. Or a small-town
traffic ticket.
