Wifely Duties

A little over a week ago, Trevor and I went over to his friend Jimmy's apartment. Him and his girlfriend cooked enchiladas and had a few friends over to enjoy a good time.
After supper we played Cards Against Humanity-one of my current favorite games.
However, if there is one thing I have learned from the game (which i have learned a lot from) it is that who you play with does determine a lot of the game's fun.
It was a little awkward playing that night in my opinion. I didn't really know what cards people would truly appreciate or not.
At one point the infamous "Wifely Duties" card was played.

The term wifely duties always gets me thinking.
I thought I would see what Urban Dictionary defines it as to include that here, but nope. Nothing! How does Urban Dictionary not have a definition for that?!

Anywho..
If wifely duties are truly just things you do as a wife I see no issue with the term. However, if these are pre assumed duties-I do see an issue. I do not think anything should be assumed going into a relationship. In fact that is how huge arguments and issues occur and get started.
I do however think that women and men should each have their roles in a household. If one person does all of the work, that is fine, as long as the couple has discussed it.

Personally-
I look forward to getting to make dinner.
I don't look forward to always cleaning, but sometimes I do enjoy it! Luckily Trevor is a tidy guy, so I don't think he'll be too much of a problem.
I also enjoy doing laundry. Here in Saint Paul, a good chunk of the time, I do Trevor's laundry anyway because it's cheaper at my place.

I am not too concerned about fulfilling my wifely duties. Not because I will be forced to, but because I know they are ways I will be able to love and serve my husband. I mean let's face it, food is the way to a man's heart!
I cannot wait until my everyday chores I am doing already, become "wifely duties."

Cookie Making Adventures with Trevor

My mom found this recipe on Pinterest (I think). She encouraged that I make them on my day off (yesterday). However, I decided to spend my day hanging out with Trevor and watching Gossip Girl.

So now, today, Trevor and I are making them together!
Here's the recipe if you want to check them out: {Flourless} Monster Cookies

I learned something today... Men shouldn't bake.
He followed me around the kitchen while I did it, making jokes the entire time.
Maybe women do belong in the kitchen, only because men shouldn't be there at all.
I love him anyway though.

How they were supposed to turn out according to the site

What they actually turned out to look like

We had to finish off the rest of the cookie dough of course!
