Do you have an important weekend coming soon? Perhaps there is a major sports event, that you wish to watch. You may just wish to do nothing, the entire weekend.

There is nothing keeping you from taking it easy all weekend. However, wives have a way of getting you to do things. You may start out on the couch, enjoying the day. The next thing you know, you are out in the yard with your Poulan chainsaw, trimming trees.

Plant mental seeds

Start your plan as soon as possible. Mention your need for a no work weekend early and often. She may feel sorry for you. It is worth a shot. However, this tactic has a low chance for success.

Another tactic is to prepare a meal for the entire family. Try to cook this meal on your own. Do not ask for help. You want it to be a pitiful attempt at meal preparation. However, your meal should still be edible. You are going to have to eat it. Make sure it is an easy to fix dinner. Be certain that it is not too tasty either. Otherwise, you may set a dangerous precedent.

Red beans and rice is a good meal to fix. Use her Zojirushi rice cooker, with a can of red beans, and rice. You can usually find red beans and rice in the kitchen pantry. Rice cookers are simple enough for any male to operate. Use one and one half parts of water with one part of rice.

When the rice is almost done, add the beans. That will finish your meal. It is best not to add too many spices, unless you can cook well. Stick to things like pepper, salt, and cayenne pepper.

Another way is to volunteer to make French toast for breakfast. All you need is some milk and an egg in a bowl. Dip the bread in the mixture and fry it in a pan. Spray the pan with cooking spray, first. Make sure that she sees you using her kitchen hand mixer on your milk and eggs. She will be certain that you have no idea, what you are doing.
