I can't really imagine what the Ball & Chain would think were he to come wandering in to find me wearing only my "Does my Bum Look big in This?" apron and a silly grin. And since I know the Queenager now reads the blog to keep up with life back at the manor, I'll spare her the vomit-inducing mental picture. Come to think of it, bets are on that he wouldn't even notice.
No. What really appeals is the fact that the remaining children at the family dinner table will be so engrossed/horrified at my appearance, they won't actually look at what's on the plates in front of them. They will sit there, mouths wide open, jaws on the table, silently shoveling food in and wondering what kind of mental state I'm in.
And maybe that way they'll eat - if only to escape the horror before them.
Hmmm.
LOL :) You had me there for a moment!
ReplyDeleteWell I'm sure my family would be even more horrified if I did that!
ReplyDeleteMight be painful to get splashed with hot fat!

Nuts in May
Hmmmm, I use fresh green chilli in a lot of my cooking - so far, the worst place I've ever had chilli-burn is under my finger-nails. It lasted for two days.
ReplyDeleteI'll be keeping my clothes on!
I absolutely cannot resist saying this, and I apologize in advance, and ordinarily I'm not one for puns, but..... it sounds to me like a recipe for disaster.
ReplyDeleteBoom-tish!
ReplyDeleteYou're all making me laugh!
I dropped over from Irene's blog (The most splendid day). My suggestion was going to be that cooking without clothing could be dangerous to your body. But that's been well covered. So to speak.
ReplyDeleteWell...wear socks, at lest. You don't want to catch a cold ;)
ReplyDeleteI suppose if you kept your pinny on then your front would be protected from splashes. Just don't bend over though ;-)
ReplyDeleteYes, pinny ON! Imagine frying sausages and them splattering over your tummy - ouch!
ReplyDeleteMike - heated floor. No need for socks.
ReplyDeleteAnd ladies, yes those splashes are a bugger. Large pinny I think! (Some might say very large pinny).
OMG when I was about 10 I realised my parents had done this one hot summer morning when I was still in bed. Kinky eh? And still not one I'd want to dwell on!!
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
Mother of Mercy. Sister Mackin couldn't handle your hemline two inches above your knee, she'd be spinning in her grave if she thought you were cooking in the buff!
ReplyDeleteTwo demerits for your house.
;-)
Surburbia - Just Eeeuuwww!
ReplyDeleteClippy - I've already done my 3 Hail Mary's and a Marguerita!
