    I'd tell her she was right then give her a nice foot rub. All will be good in your world afterwards.


    We all know the truth though......


    I agree another SV unit might be in order here, make this work for you while letting her know she is boss.

    You sound like you haven't been married for long. Every married man knows that you can either be happy, or right. But not both.

    You're also completely missing an opportunity to get another SV unit. " To do raw meat separately, dear."
    8 years, remember it was her idea for me to post this..... she thought she was right and that I'd listen to you guys :-)
    By any chance is she reading the responses in this thread?

    @JohnInCarolina hope that's not against forum rules :-)

    I think that the bread bag would float... unless you had a way to keep it under water.

    If the meat had rotavirus:

    It could tunnel through the SV bag from the meat into the water:

    However they sink (and decompose) in the ocean of sous vide water, and the bread floats:

    So I think your banana bread would be ok.

    And if you have rotavirus running around your kitchen , you have bigger problem than meat and bread SVing together.

    As a good friend reminded me recently, more often than not, the wife is usually right.

    Even when she isn't.  ;)
    Sounds like a very wise friend.

    *sigh*  rookie mistake going to the microwave.  Throw it in the water then don't share.

    Follow up with asking her why her feet are smaller than yours.

     Did I mention I mess up real bad every so often, I actually have said the word "no" to my Beautiful Wife. Once.
    Although diamond earrings seem to be a huge investment initially to guarantee matrimonial bliss, it is better than 1/2 of everything. Break out the calculator, you will see I am on to something.
    Be careful, they can smell fear.

    You're a wise man, I've yet to do the math but I suppose you're right.  I'm still holding out though, need a backup plan in case I get in trouble.

    If I had a dollar for every time my wife lost an ear ring I could buy her diamond ear rings!

    Ms. Hans, I commend you for wanting to know the truth and subjecting your thoughts to consideration by the members of this forum.  You're a far cry ahead of most people when they have a debate such as this.

    And I'll just leave this here.

    Having met your wife, I know this is an unobtainable aspiration for you.  ;)

    Yeah.  My wife says I laughed "a little too much" when we saw that scene.
