the translation i think is "I'm a picky eater ..i prefer to cook for myself"
When its hot in the jungle of peace I go swimming in the ocean of love.....
If Mary, Mother of Jesus made dinner for my husband, he prolly wouldn’t eat it.

but isn't this typical of a lot of jamaicans? especially jamaican men that want fi eat at them yard and don't like to go out to eat?
My MIL used to do towels the way RichD suggested - fold washcloth hand towels within matching bath towel.
I like towels laundered a certain way - don't care either way about folding method - with hot water, bleach, etc. Having lived with three men, the towel war was a fight that I was not going to win. So I washed and folded all the towels and they laundered their own clothes. Same thing actually with mowing the lawn ... I like it done a certain way, so I mowed the lawn.
Let there be peace inna di dancehall and the home was my motto
my laundry dem fold pan di wrong side (since most a di clothes wash pan wrong side)-dem lucky dem get fold much less pan a certain side facing a certain way

The one flaw I have though is that she doesn't fold my towels the way I like them folded. She folds them big with the edges showing and I tend to discretely fold them all again and put them back in the linen closet.
Should I bring it up to her or am I just being excessively meticulous? </div></div>
You simply want your home to continue the way you like it.
One of the most ignored acts in initiation of a new employee is the neglect of explaining your idiosyncrasies That can be a breaker even When all else is perfect.
I would explain how important it s to me Just after lavishing her with praise about Ger other skills.
And give her some little trinket the first time she accomplished it.
Something like you would do to a hotel maid. </div></div>

RE: the nuh eat from nuh badi comment...is not a matter of me scorning her or anyone for that fact, I simply like my own cooking and my mother's too (which I constantly complain about in the weight loss thread ) I did have a bad experience with a helper when I was younger (contracted an h pylori infection which was misdiagnosed as a stomach ulcer for years) and since that I just would rather cook for myself. I am not saying that if she decide to cook a meal I wouldn't eat it. I just prefer to avoid the whole what if and continue cooking for myself.
