When my husband walked in the door just a second ago, he handed me a bag from Publix.
Look what was inside!
ALL BECAUSE OF YOUR COMMENTS. He said that so many of you mentioned it that we just had to try it.
So now, if you wouldn’t mind, I think y’all should leave comments about All The Great Meals Your Husbands Have Cooked On Friday Nights. The power of suggestion, you know.
I’m just sayin’.
It’s worth a shot, isn’t it?

We’re HUGE Dunkin Donuts coffee fans here. But I have to tell you I’ve done some pricing. It’s WAY cheaper to buy your DD bags of ground coffee from the drive-thru at Dunkin Donuts. Wal Mart sells it for $6.68 for a 12 oz. bag. But, DD sells you TWO 16 oz. bags for $10.99 (for both).
I emphasize the drive-thru so you’re not tempted to walk out the door with a dozen chocolate glazed donuts. Don’t even ask me how I know…….
I hope you are enjoying the DD coffee… there is no better!
I lived in Boston when I first began flying, and there was a DD on every corner. I was in heaven, and not for the donuts!
And, you should see how fast pilots and flight attendants will get out of the empty plane while in a city with a DD in that terminal – pretty dern quick. Many times, when there wasn’t enough time to leave the plane between flights, it was common knowledge that one of our nice pilots would take orders and go by himself to get the DD coffee.
Priorities, folks! Your plane may be delayed if the line was extra long, but you’d have alert and happy flight attendants and pilots!
Enjoy the coffee. I’m drinking some right now.
When my husband started doing all the cooking and cleaning, his golf game improved so much that he miraculously became a scratch player.
Or, um, he started hunting better? Starting getting more deer, maybe?
(Can’t remember what your husband likes to do.)
I am not making this up.
Seriously, my husband is the cook in our family. And he made a DELICIOUS baked chicken dish last night — Friday. :)
For the record, my husband doesn’t clean-at all! I had to start by saying that so you wouldn’t hate me. My husband does all the evening cooking. He is a muscian/artist so cooking is letting out his creative juices in some way. He usually gets hungry for something and then either goes to the Pioneer Woman Cooks website or looks it up online elsewhere. His signature dishes are mostly Italian, but I was gaining so much weight with all the sauces, I made him stop.
BTW-I’m going to make my man bring home some of that DD coffee, since I don’t grocery shop much either. Hee Hee.
I just LOVE you! I am from C*rinth, Mississippi myself (now in Arkansas). You would have to be one of the best people on the planet to be friends with. I read you everyday.
Love it when the husband brings home goodies!
I think it’s wonderful when my husband picks up some *FRIED CHICKEN* on Friday nights on his way home from work. ;) …(that oughta work!)
:) Does it count if I mention what great cooks both of my grown sons have become??? Brad specialized in bread and pastry — his apple pie is tops, bar none!! He cooks gormet meals at least Three times a week. And Rob does almost anything like a top notch Chef. For Easter he made the most delicious scalloped potatoes I’ve ever eaten. He cooks for his wife at LEAST three times a week!! (How’s that?)
my hubby grilled a steak and seared scallops wrapped in bacon for dinner on valentine’s day. i can’t even remember what else he made with it – but he did make some kind of starch and veggie too. :) happy hinting!
I agree with Jennie. While I love when my husband cooks for me, ( does that alot now that I work evenings) the clean up I have to indure afterwards really isn’t worth it.
It boggles my mind that when we cook, we have to clean. When they cook, we have to clean.
I don’t know if I can get my husband and teens to try the DD coffee. My favorite thing my husband does on Friday nights and every night is the dishes. When we had our 4th child I gave him the choice, bathe the kids or do dishes. Either way (I told him) your gonna get wet. He chose dishes (bad knees) and has been doing them ever since. Bless his heart….
mm Lovin me some DD coffee.. Not a hubby pick, but a Jenn pick, Crystal Light, ENERGY, in strawberry!mmm makes some drab water mm mmm good!
Queen of Blogdom BooMaMa – did you know you got a big shout out on Shaw-annn’s Shlog? Very impressive – you are cross blogged – going over barriers of gender and purpose and –whew I’m too excited by all the caffeine on this page – gotta get a nap.
You’ll have to let us know how good it is. I wanted to try it but didn’t want to waste the money if I didn’t like it. So you see what you think first :o)
Let us know if it is good!! I have looked at it in the stores but wasn’t sure…
:)
You should head to the Northeast and try a cup of hot, fresh Dunkin Donuts coffee. I don’t know if they advertise heavily where you are, but their tagline is: America runs on Dunkin.
Goulash, soup, oyster stew, etc. You name it and my hubby can cook it. He is THE BEST!!!
You gotta try what we did. We found a young, single guy in our church who doesn’t have family around and “adopted” him. Turns out he LOVES to cook. (I know!!) He just cooked us an amazing meal of fresh tuna, pasta veggie salad, sugar snap peas, fruit tarts and cheesecake!!! (I know!!) Man, this is working out GREAT! And to top it off he’s a really nice guy, funny, and serious about his faith. My husband has been discipling him for about a year. So, I’m just saying.
Though I can’t promise that it was a Friday… My Mr. Right made Grilled Salmon, Italian Green Beans and Honey Carrots.
Then some other night, he made Pork Chops with Sauted Onions, Broccoli and Baked Sweet Potatoes.
Then there was the time when he made chocolate chip pancakes for dinner, complete with sausage patties and coffee. Oh, and strawberries for dessert.
On yet another night, he made a Baked Potato Bar, complete with real bacon. REAL BACON!
And this was a Sunday night for sure (I know because it was last night), he made Macaroni and Cheese and baby peas. Though the M&C was from a box, it was heavenly.
Hey, I’m not about to complain about a meal I didn’t have to cook. I know that I’ve got a gift worth more than all the gold in the world and I’m not about to mess with a really good thing…
drink it at work all the time…
So, I haven’t been here in a few days and missed out on the whole “morning favorites” thing (I know, bad, bad girl…) but I just want to say, that I love Publix. I live in the DFW area but vacationed in Florida a few years ago and that was our grocery store while we were there. They make the best spinach artichoke dip and I am still kicking myself for not bringing home 10 tubs of it. Okay, I got that off my chest. See you again soon!
Oooo, I will have to keep checking back to see if I can find something to my husband that he can cook for dinner that doesn’t include the word fried.
