LIVIN ON THE EDGE!!!!!
I kinda got put on lifelong probation for "borrowing" one of my wife's pots to boil a coyote skull. I still think it was her fault for not telling me she was only working half a day. I'm sure I could have had the mess and smell cleared out by the time she got home under normal circumstances.
There are some mountains that are not worth dying on. I just posed a question to Marie about her not-quite-a-month-old T-Fal pots and pans I bought her, and my potential use of same for bullet lube-making. After a look that would shrivel asbestos of about 5 seconds in duration, her expression relaxed into a gentle smile, followed by--
"Yes, you can do that. For the next month, you can take us out to dinner every night and for brunch every mid-morning. Then--after a month or so--you can re-buy all of that nice T-Fal kitchenware you got me. Deal?" This last was delivered with a lovely smile.
I know a directive when I hear one. I see LSS products continuing their role at my loading bench.
Got a good strong gal for 52 years. She hits hard so I stay out of the kitchen - plus she is a fantastic cook. And she has iron skillets! A friend's spouse just used a big wooden spoon on her hubby, says it doesn't leave marks.
2 most important words "Yes Dear", in line with Rick H, "Happy wife, happy life"
Although I do tease Roberta with my version "Happy hubby, lovey dovey"...
Guys there is a simple solution to this thing of using the wife's pots to do what we do. and the answer is get your own and not get in trouble with the wife. over 25 years ago my wife told me if I was going to melt wax or anything else in a pot to get my own to mess up. so garage sales I went . never had a problem with the wife after that about her pots and pans .

You guys need to do one simple thing as I do.
Every morning when you wake up, sit up, look over at your wife and say:
“Honey, I’m sorry”
Do that you will be ahead of game.
