Today, I will be mostly cleaning

Nikki's away for a week and a half, and we're having visitors while she's away. She's been away quite a lot recently with work, so the house isn't in it's usual pristine state. See, normally, I do all the cooking and Nikki does nearly all the cleaning. Very rarely, Nikki will cook and I will clean*. Because we're having visitors (my cousin Ame and her hubby Adam, and their baby Jack) for the weekend, Nikki instructed me to clean the house a bit. But she didn't trust me to follow that vague instruction, so she left me a list.

Now, I dunno what would happen if I were going away and I decided to leave cooking instructions for herself. I'd imagine I'd be going away with a black eye. :-)

* Where "very rarely" means "almost never", especially in the case of me cleaning.

I love how she knows where you'd 'forget' to clean. I have never thought that visitors would know to search for dirt under the toaster!

And if you ever do try and get your own back, just leave the note so she can't see it until after your gone. Leave detailed instructions e.g. Turn the gas nob (third down) from 0 to 3, ensuring that you do not go short and hit two - or too far to hit 4 (50 degrees). However, maybe that's just putting a little too much effort into it.

I have NO IDEA what you're talking about. We don't even have gas, for a start.
