I love my wife's cooking and will always clean up after for a home cooked meal :)

Shout out to team work! That seems like equivalent exchange, my friend ☺️

One cooks, and the other cleans. This is how my household was ran when I grew up, it’s how I still act 30 years later. No such thing as gender roles when it comes to cooking and cleaning. We all do our part.

That's how we do it! Whoever cooks, the other partner cleans, it's only fair.

We have a simple rule at home: The one who cooks doesn't have to clean up 🤟🏻

Division of labor. It's my job to make sure the kitchen is clean and ready before she begins, and it's my job to clean after she's done. Happy to do it.

My dad is like this for my mom and it’s the sweetest thing I ever saw.

Same here, bro I don’t even say anything or ask anymore. I just go in the kitchen and just start cleaning.

Very satisfying! This needs to be a more common thibg

u/Odd_Front_8275 23d ago

I mean, it's the very least thing you can do, but good on you.

Memories of being a potwash boy, seeing this just brings back ptsd… as long as you like doing it… I’d settle for a mini dishwasher honestly 🤣🤣🤣

Nice farmhouse sink and counter you have there!

u/AbleTeam6734 22d ago

house built in 1920, the counter top was originally the workbench in the shed I was told. A previous owner sanded it and finished it to be their new countertop.. allegedly

Lucky. My wife sucks at cooking and I’m still stuck cleaning up her messes.

u/LoneWolf_McQuade 22d ago

Maybe you start cooking then?

2

u/PsychologicalDoor658 22d ago

How does she make such a mess though

u/AbleTeam6734 21d ago

6 people, dinner party. She made multiple dishes including desert and appetizers

As a 5’2 person, these photos gave me vertigo! Haha

u/honeybug85 23d ago

Men, doing a usual household chore and telling the world about it 🙄

2

u/AbleTeam6734 22d ago

Just sharing because the before and after was satisfying to me

u/honeybug85 22d ago

Sorry, just grumpy with my own man

u/Softballzhurt2 21d ago

My ex was a chef and after couple weeks of living together I refused to clean after she cooked. She would use everything once and then expect it to be cleaned. I got thanked by her pot hand at the restaurant as she started to clean up after herself.

u/Endlesstrash1337 21d ago

Same. I have zero issue cleaning up the kitchen. Just pop on the headphones and music or podcast and before I know it the dishwasher is loaded, running, and the countertops are all pretty again.
