I'm glad her husband is cooking now, but I don't get why she calls him "Mr. Barbeque."
Those chairs look really uncomforable, too.

Like in the South where I'm from, it means slowly cooking meat in a wood-fired "pit" and nothing else. Other places it's more loosely associated with various types of outdoor cookery, but never have I known it to be associated with indoor cooking.
Then again, maybe her maiden name was Barbeque and now's she's p****-whipped enough that he finally took her name, hence "Mr. Barbeque"! That's what it is! He's HER bitch now!

Date: 2011-02-15 08:23 pm (UTC)Hey, those Jenn-Airs used to be the THING! They got bought out and now it's all cheap parts and customer complaints on Consumer Reports now, but when we were looking for our first house, just because the house had a Jenn-Air, it was totally out of our price range. Everything else was just like all the other houses but the stove--that made all the difference. Of course, that's back when we had an economy.
