8 things that men do in the kitchen that drive us absolutely crazy!

Maybe you’re one of those women who are lucky enough to have a companion who enjoys making dinner for you. He wants to give you the night off and let you put your feet up while he takes care of dinner for you and the kids.

And even though that sounds like absolute heaven, there are still some things that these adorable men do when they’re cooking that drive us absolutely bonkers! Read on to find out what makes us want to pull our hair out when a man sets foot in the kitchen.

When the kitchen turns into a battleground

Even with all the good intentions in the world, most men seem to have this characteristic in common. The moment they set foot in the kitchen it turns into a battleground. Utensils, pots, pans and plates are everywhere, piled high on each and every surface. Tiny portions of food end up in huge serving dishes, and huge quantities end up crammed into miniscule containers. So take a deep breath, relax, and most importantly, don’t look while he’s cooking!

Nice Try. My wife has all of the bad habits you describe. It is discouraging to come home to prepare dinner and have to clean the kitchen first! She has damaged my favorite pan! She is notorious for "remembering to buy pickles!" We have two or three jars of multiple kinds at all times (when they are half full I consolidate). She leaves half an onion or half a pepper (etc.) unwrapped or bagged and on the counter instead of in the frige. She will make enough for a small army (we're empty nesters) and then make a new meal the following day. Let's not even talk about spices, pastas, or dry good of any kind! And my cast iron! If I were paid by the hour to clean re-season my skillet I wouldn't need a job. I think I'll keep her though, she's a loving wife, mother and grandmother and loves her yard more than the kitchen. We were made for eachother.
