In DESPERATE Need Of...

...a DH!!!

It never fails. I'll be in the middle of an experimental baking project and I'll decide I need/want something else for the recipe. Of course, I can't go to the store and get it. I'm covered in batter, powdered sugar, icing, crisco...you name it, my hair is in a big jumbled mess on the top of my head, and I have on "kitchen clothes." I often think to myself, "Wouldn't it be nice to have a DH I could send to the store to get supplies for me?"

I sure wish Global Sugar Art sold DH's! I would buy one in a heart beat! icon_wink.gif

Then you have to clean up after them and deal with all of their other issues. They're stinky, have poor manners and leave their crap everywhere...

Want to borrow mine for a few days? icon_wink.gif

I was at a conference recently. There was a study done that adding a DH added 7 additional hours of work for all of us DW's. icon_surprised.gif Adding a DW decreased the amount of work for a DH by 3 hours. icon_surprised.gificon_rolleyes.gif Go Figure!!

if you find one, then let me know-I have one and he'd never run to the store for me ...

Me too! He'd stall to the point that I give up and go myself and it would still be quicker than he would have managed if he went... icon_confused.gif

I have Dear children!

Good thing I live close to a mini store. If they don't have what I need, it's a quick 5 minute beach ride to the next "major" store.

They come in handy all the time, but do leave lil messes to clean up also!

I have one of those handy dandy DH's! Got him for a steal, too icon_lol.gif! Let me list some of the things my version comes with:

1. Willingness to run to store for eggs, powdered sugar, buttermilk, cocoa, etc when needed ASAP
2. Has a function that reacts automatically in the positive whenever a scream, gasp, or crying fit starts
3. Always has a finger/hand ready to help package, tie a bow, or hold a door open
4. Has a build in delivery persona...will deliver to areas on his way to work!
5. Will help you deliver cakes to venues and act as your assistant
6. Cleans up the mess in the 'baking room' whenever baker is sick an tired of being in there
7. Gives honest options about recipes
8. Has several brothers willing to take extra cake/cookie mistakes off your hands
9. Is extremely supportive of your 'talent'
10. Gives shoulder/back rubs when you have been bent over a stove/mixer/cake/etc for hours upon hours
...and the best one: 11. Knows when to just STAY OUT OF YOUR WAY!

I definitely think I got an amazing deal on this one, and I didn't have to look thousands of places for this DH! This one walked right into my place of work...talk about a time-saver icon_razz.gif...and he came knowing how to cook! What a cool addition!

How old are his brothers, and are they single? icon_lol.gif

If they're too young for me, I have five nieces I'm trying to marry off.

I have one of those that fluttercakes mentioned. I didn't think there were 2 of them in the world. When I'm in the middle of one of my cake projects, he runs off to get the things I'm missing. He is also my engineer expert in getting some of my crazy cakes boxed up. The only thing missing is there aren't any brothers to help get rid of the extra cakes or mistakes. But with everything else he is the BEST!!
