Cookie Widower Equality Quiz

12/21/2013

7 Comments

 
So, you all thought it was funny when I was calling out the men-folk, eh?  Well ladies (specifically cookie ladies) let see how you like it when you’re in my cross-hairs.  I’m curious if this interest in our partner’s obsession is mutual?  Let’s take a bit of a pop-quiz, shall we?  For the sake of this experiment, I shall be used to represent my fellow widowers, and you shall be used to represent you, the cookiers.

I know the difference between icing and glaze.  Do you know the difference between cover 1 and cover 2 defenses?  If you think this is a math problem, just give up now.  I think your KitchenAid is calling.

I know that when my wife refers to a 1, 0, and 00 she isn’t talking about clothing sizes, but PME tips.  When I complain that we have too many turnovers, do you assume someone has a weakness for puff pastry?

If I mention Sam, Will and Mike. . . are you thinking Linebackers?  Or did you think Sam’s Club, "Wil-ton" and Mike from Semi Sweet?

Picture
I don’t giggle when I hear “baker’s rack” “wet on wet” or “I need to wash my tips”.  Do you sigh when I try to explain why the zone blocking scheme isn’t effective against that defense?

I know of every store that carries CK Meringue powder within 100 square miles.  Do you know the difference between the shotgun and the pistol?  (Yes, they’re both guns.  Yes, I’m still talking about football.  You know you’re just proving my point here, right?)

Ok gals, how did you do?  I’m sure some of you scored quite well.  Others stopped reading this and jumped to Sugarbelle’s blog. 
Amy scored a 0. 
That’s ok.  We love you anyway.

Note from Amy:  I think my score should be a .5, not a zero.  I do know what a turnover is in football.  But when I explained my answer to Mike, he was getting all technical on me and I stopped listening.

Great job Nancy, you beat Amy. Despite her note, the best I could give her is a .25.
Paulette, its not cheating, just proves you were, in fact, paying attention!!!

Thanks to both of you!!!

Wow Mike! I can't believe you know all of those things. My hubs would score a 0 on cookie lingo.

And yes, I scored a 0 on your football quiz but in my defense (and thank God), my husband doesn't watch football. I wouldn't do too badly quizzed on one of his hobbies. I think. :)

Keep em coming Mike, my hubbie loves your posts, he understands footy terms so making them relevant to him has opened up a whole new world. Thanks for the laughs. You need to start your own blog for fellow widowers........ rob

Dotty, don't feel bad, you're in the same boat as Amy. Ahead of her actually if you know your hubbies hobbies :)

Robyn, writing them are tons of fun. Thanks for your support, and I'll be writing another one soon. It will be the husbands online support group!
