an empty plate
That's what we're having for dinner.
Tired of being the meal master, all I ask is for a little input, a request, and what do I get?
"I don't know" "I don't care" (neither of which are on my menu.) Being somewhat sarcastic, I dish it up. On an empty plate, being careful not to splatter the sauce or upset the silverware as I slap the dish down in front of him.
Sometimes it is easier to just break out the Doritos or the Poptarts then face a hot kitchen and an apathetic audience.
I think I'll just drink tonight. The cook is out, you're on your own.
