In our family, I'm convinced that my wife cannot shop for me since she has no sense of fruit ripeness, for example. I suspect that ignorance is, dare I write it, deliberate. And she can send me to the store with a vague statement like "we need cucumbers" giving me no sense of how many nor what kind nor what to buy if her favorite kind is unavailable. So I guess it's a bit mutural.That's a good idea.
I guess I should correct my other post. It's not really accurate that he wouldn't go instead of me. He's done it plenty of times. He's a good sport.
It's just that we'd be well stocked in snacks and BBQ stuff, but I need to be there to make sure it's more than one meal's worth and the rest snacks.
