One of my favorite stories to tell about my wife is early on in our marriage she wanted to make "dinner." I use quotes because it was Hamburger Helper.
Now I know my wife, and I know she has trouble following directions - she'll skip a step or omit ingredients or whatever. So I tell her to be sure to read the instructions, and she launches full tilt into how she knows how to make HH and to leave her alone. So I do.
Come to find out she didn't follow instructions and put the meat, the noodles, the water, and the spice packet all in the skillet at the same time.
We ended up picking up Chinese takeout.
