Brief backstory, I work out of town during the week, usually get home Friday mid afternoon and leave noonish on Sunday to drive back to south Florida.
 A few weeks ago I Egged some beef flat ribs on Friday evening. Was delish, and my Wife asked Saterday if I would do some for her to take to the girls at work, she works at a “sports bar/pub” that has a limited menu. The girls wanted something not served there, understandably, they are burned out on the menu foods. I Egged em up and they , according to my wife, looked like a herd of velociraptors descending on the ribs.
Now, my wife asked if I would do more next weekend, but put them on before I leave for work and she will take them off. Seems that some of the girls are coming to the house to hang at the pool Sunday afternoon, and my Wife might have told them that she cooked the beef ribs that they liked so much.
I am glad they enjoyed them, cheap thrills when someone outside my family likes my cooks, but how’s about a little credit. At least tell them I helped pick out the meats..

    @PoppasGrill,

    Best way to find out is to ask her.

    You are correct, I’ll do the cook and just give her a kiss as I’m leaving, but she owes me .

    Arrange for a redeye flight that night, return home as the party's gettin' started, and point out to all the gals that you selected all the paint colors, furniture, tablewear and even those kicky throw pillows on the sofa.  Then ask your wife to drive you to the airport.
    This is what I would do.
    This is also why I'm unmarried at 59.  :lol:

    Nah, I’ll be gone before they arrive. It’s okay though, as I was reminded, She knows who the cook is. Not to mention that the girls don’t really care who cooks it as long as they don’t have to.
