Food Joke
Another version of The Good
Wife Guide
This article (believe it
or not) is an actual extract from a Home Economics textbook printed in
the early 1960’s. It is absolutely true and it was written in a serious
manner – it was not written as a joke. So you women out there, please don’t
blame me. In fact I for one am glad things have changed in the 21st century
as much as they have!
Challenge. If anyone wants
to prepare, “The Good Husband Guide” as you think it might have been written
in the 1960’s, then send it to me.
Have dinner ready. Plan ahead even the
night before, to have a delicious meal ready on time for his return from
work. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about
him and are concerned about his needs.
Prepare yourself. Take 15minutes to rest
so you will be refreshed when he arrives. Touch up your make-up, put a
ribbon in your hair and be fresh looking. He has just been with a lot of
work weary people. Be a little gay and a little more interesting for him.
His boring day may need a lift and one of your duties is to provide it.
Clear away the clutter. Make one last
trip through the main part of the house just before your husband arrives.
Gather up schoolbooks, toys, papers etc and then run a dust cloth over
the tables. During the colder months of the year you should prepare and
light a fire for him to unwind by. After all, catering for his comfort
will provide you immense personal satisfaction.
Make the evening his. Never complain if
he goes out to dinner or other places of entertainment without you. Instead,
try to understand his world of strain and pressure and his very real need
to be at home and relax. Try to make sure your home is a place of peace,
order and tranquillity. Don’t complain if he’s late home for dinner or
even stays out all night. Count this as minor compared to what he might
have gone through that day.
Make him comfortable. Have him lean back
in a comfortable chair. Have a cool or warm drink ready for him. Arrange
the pillow and offer to take off his shoes. Speak in a low, soothing and
pleasant voice. Remember, he is the master of the house and as such will
always exercise his will with fairness and truthfulness.
Once he has had a chance to have his evening
meal, clear the dishes and wash up promptly. If your husband should offer
to help decline his offers – he may feel obliged to repeat this offer and
after a long working day he does not need the extra work.
Encourage your husband to pursue his hobbies
and interests and be supportive without seeming to encroach. If you have
any little hobbies try not to bore him speaking of these, as women’s interests
are often rather trivial compared to men’s. at the end of the evening tidy
the home ready for the morning and again think ahead to his breakfast needs.
Once you have both retired to the bedroom
prepare yourself for bed as promptly as possible. Your tired husband does
not want to queue for the bathroom, as he would have to do for his train.
However, try to remember to look your best when going to bed. Try to achieve
a look that is welcoming without being obvious. If you need to apply face
cream or hair rollers wait until he is asleep as this can be shocking to
a man last thing at night.
