Yes, I'll be glad when mom gets home.

She's a better cook than my wife...

Good update, Spook. Aren't all moms better cooks than our wives? I always thought so.

Oh George...you two are digging a hole here.

Three of my kids have started running into the walls. Literally.

They are running as fast as they can, and at the last moment jumping up to see how high up the wall they are when they hit.

I heard one of the say "maybe we should pick a wall without a painting", so I guess that means I can ignore them.

And this is surprising because?

Actually it makes sense that moms are better cooks than wives, if you think about it! Most moms have 20 to 30 years more experience than a wife does. And I know my mom had a few "secrets" that she never shared with me in the kitchen!

Wait, I'm siding with Sour and Spook???? I may have to retink this!

Critter has said for years that I'm a better cook than his mother - or do you reckon he's just being diplomatic?

Critter is just super smart.

Or maybe, like my mother, Critter's mother didn't cook?

My wife has never caught on to this cooking thing...
Let me explain. (as if I would ever lie)

She grew up in town, somewhat well off. Both of her
parents worked. My wife and her brother had "charge
accounts" at the local restaurants.

This is where they ate every day. Sometimes a meal at
an aunt's house a few blocks away.

But cooking was simply not done in their home. Honest
truth, there was no real food in the house. Chips, pop, snacks.
Her mother didn't even HAVE pots and pans. She kept
paperwork in the kitchen cabinets.

When we got married, I bought new appliances. The papers
hung in the oven for SIX MONTHS. My wife simply had no
ideal.

But she finally tried.

One of those frozen pizzas...she did take the plastic wrap off.
But then put the pizza-on the cardboard-in the oven.

Cardboard burns...

So yes. Mom is a much better cook.

Spook.
