Daddium Idiom #4
"Where there's smoke, Mom is cooking." ~ Me
Meaning: Cooking is not one of Elizabeth's strengths. Although, in fairness, our oven doubles as a crematorium for unfortunate and often unidentifiable dinner remains, left charred and smoldering on it's bottom.
Origin(al): "Where there's smoke, there's fire." ~ Unknown

omg, this is something my husband & 6 year old daughter would say!

Yes . . . only when you're not around. Because, odds are, charred or not, you're probably still a better cook than your husband and 6-year-old combined.
hi jack
no, actually my husband is the cook & my daughter, missy, has been assisting him from about age 2!
when he proposed to me, the first thing i said to him was, 'i don't cook & not planning to'.
needless to say, he has been cooking & baking for the last 15 years of our marriage!
ps: you seem like a very hands-on dad. i just came across your blog earlier this evening ... i will surely be checking in regularly.

Zub,
Damn! When I replied to your comment, I knew I was going out on a limb stating you're "probably" a better cook than your husband . . . and the limb broke. Good for him, and good for you!
I'm curious, how did come across my blog? Thanks for reading!
Jack
hi (from a cold & rainy cape town)
I was reading wendie tobin's mommytopia & well honestly now blogs, which in turn lead me to kat's keep the coffee coming. i clicked on one of their (not sure which one) commenter's name and i ended up on jen's stale cigarettes & flat diet coke blog ... and there it was, jack's confessions of a trophy husband, lol!
i couldn't relate to jen's blog though. it was because of the name of your blog that i clicked on the link.
i think, being a wife, a mother to a 6yr old & working from home, i can relate to your writing/experiences, as well as wendie's (she's also a facebook friend). i also read bhj's wind in your vagina.
hope that satisfies your curiosity (remember it killed the cat)!
happy writing (",)
zub
