if I cut the callaloo and let it sit for an hour b4 cooking it, he complains it not 'fresh'

I am the lan administrator of the house, and he manages the connection for the entertainment system.

@Tulip. I think it is wonderful that a man can sew. In North America it is a dying art. I remember going with my dad to the tailors in JA where he got his suits made

I can barely sew, my mom can and every now an again she does stuff for the kids. I have a major disconnect with her over her fabric choices (polly &amp; her cousin esther) .. I feel if it is going to be made den use the right fabrics

Awww so good to have a resident chef . Is your hubby Jamaican or did he acquire a taste for things Jamaican? (for some reason I thought you married a Brit) </div></div>

he has jamaican roots but family has been here a few generations. Thai food is his favorite but he loves jamaican vegetables &amp; fruits

I took sewing lessons when I was younger and still am not good at it. My cousin on the other hand took one class in high school and was making suede skirts. It's just not my thing apparently lol.

I'm dying with laugh at polyester.

You'd be surprised how much growing up in a house full of women and overhearing their conversations could help a horse steer. I'll give it up, he could definitely steer.

Did he have a creative job? Sounds like most people see a man sewing as a questionable task but I'm sure there are many male designers who are straight!! Even curtains. I just dont know many people (men or women) who make their own clothes anymore. </div></div>

Dear K, it almost hurts me to say it but he was a chef and painter. (And yes he officially did cook better than I did.)

The sissy thought crossed my mind, but when you with a man who can look at a dress at Macy's and make it for you for free, you let things slide.

On the serious side, he was not gay though - just well rounded.
