I asked my WIFE to help prepare supper. Told her to peel half the potatoes in the bag and put them in the pot of water!

Where was I not clear?

Dawid - you are now talking c**p!

Hester would NEVER do anything like that!

She WOULD peel half the potatoes and put them in the bag BEFORE putting them in the pot! That's what you told her to do. NOT put half peeled potatoes in the pot, but the bag WITH half the peeled potatoes in the pot!

I know Hester - she will do EXACTLY as you said!

Ja .........................!

I give up!

I have already learned my lesson - "You cannot win with women!"

David she did do what you said, what is the problem?

David, I think we must try the half peeled potatoes, looks quite interesting!!!!, we seldom peel potatoes, just wash and scrub!!! SORRY!!!, not going to get into this one with ANY other comments!!!

Perhaps the Topic should have been: How NOT to peel potatoes!!!

David your instructions were as clear as mud 

Yes Brian - looks like mud in the water, as well - forgot to say wash them!

Frans - Na aanleiding van Willie (Boring Camper) se kommentaar moes ek dit maar liewer self gedoen het!

I find it interesting that nobody has criticised me for not being able to read as well as give instructions. This should have been placed under a different topic. But, us  campers just cannot ignore the "FOOD" section. Or you guys/gals are just being polite?

This is why you did not ask her to peel half the eggs for the scamble!!?
