Wash his hands, use 2 paper towels. (I use kitchen towels for that!) Wipe coffee off the counter, use 2 paper towels (I use the dishrag for that!) If he is in the kitchen *too* much we can easily go through a roll of paper towels in one day. It's RIDICULOUS. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-dh-impulsiveoverzealous-about-little-stuff#post-435098 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:51:46 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 435098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha! for somethings.. like butter! omg SO MUCH BUTTER! also cereal. last night he had a HUGE bowl. literally so big he had to use a baking dish to eat out of. so funny though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-dh-impulsiveoverzealous-about-little-stuff#post-435029 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:31:12 +0000 MrsBrewer 435029@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! My DH to begin with doesn't like eating salads, it's not a "man" food in his eyes, and it never fills him up! So when I do make salads for dinner, he will use a HUGE mixing bowl for his salad. and then he uses at least 1/2 a bottle of dressing. Its ridiculous!! LOL </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-dh-impulsiveoverzealous-about-little-stuff#post-435020 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:29:35 +0000 MrsTiz 435020@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha! DH does that with sweet and sour sauce for his eggrolls. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-dh-impulsiveoverzealous-about-little-stuff#post-435016 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:29:10 +0000 SugarplumsMom 435016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm kinda like that too =P But I have to hide things from DH or he'll eat it everything. For instance, my mom sends us huge dried mango bags from Costco and I have to start rationing it. He gave himself a belly ache yesterday because he couldn't stop himself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-dh-impulsiveoverzealous-about-little-stuff#post-435012 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:27:38 +0000 mediagirl 435012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha ha YES! He heaps on the salad fixings like it's his job to over indulge us. That's so funny you bring that up. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-dh-impulsiveoverzealous-about-little-stuff#post-434981 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:18:11 +0000 autumnlove 434981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, my DH is not like that but I am! hahaha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-dh-impulsiveoverzealous-about-little-stuff#post-434975 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 15:17:08 +0000 tororojo 434975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>There are certain kitchen/meal preparing responsibilities that I steer DH away from because he's just too enthusiastic--like if he cuts slices of cheese for sandwiches, they're SUPER thick; putting croutons on a salad, he'll use half the bag; putting butter on anything he uses twice as much as I would. He heaps dressing on his salads so that there's a big pool left when he's finished, and earlier he made me look away when he was making chocolate milk so I wouldn't see how much chocolate he used. ;) I feel like I have to intervene because if I don't, we run out of things way too fast! I don't know if he really thinks he needs to use so much or if he just has fun pouring things out. Does your DH use way bigger quantities of stuff than you? Is it a man thing or is my husband just special? </p>
