He'd know I was just taking the piss Pete. lol He goes fishing quite often, and usually does ok, so it's not like it's anything new. He doesn't give a shit about the awesome cakes I make and I don't go on about the meals I cook constantly.

Works both ways you know fellas.

Lols, fair point.

Make the fish into a cake. Then you can both be proud of it.

If he tells you about it a fourth time, fake orgasm. He'll either be satisfied or suitably chastened. Then give him a make-up cuddle so it isn't passive-aggressive. Much.

True. And I make sure Mrs. Z knows how proud I am of her accomplishments.

Ok, it's true that Mrs. Z is an excellent baker and sometimes acknowledging her accomplishments means making yummy noises whilst shoveling in her made-from-scratch cinnamon rolls.

But I also listen and comment when she's telling me about what she learned in her ESL courses.
