My husband tried to bribe me. Here I was thinking the use of bribes was only used on small children and corrupt government officials but seems I can now be added to the list.
Tim and I don’t have many rules at our house but one of them, and might I add that Tim established this rule before we got married, is this:
Whoever cooks doesn’t have to clean up.
Well as soon as those words were out of his mouth I heartily agreed. Afterall, I could see the writing on the wall, I knew it would be me who would do the most cooking and I’ll gladly admit I’m not a fan of cleaning up.
The other night I’m sitting at our dining room table (its new by the way and I love it!) minding my own business as Tim cleans up in the kitchen. Cleaning up dishes from the previous day. He casually starts a conversation and manages to put in… “If you come help me, I’ll let you get whatever you like as takeout for dinner.”
Hmm I considered and thought, fair enough, so I help out. But it was a bribe and wow it actually worked. Points to you babe. But now I’m scheming…what am I going to bribe him about???
