 Like many people in a relationship where you share a household, one person is stuck doing the bulk of the housework.

I buy most of the groceries, pay all the bills and manage finances, run the house, do all the cooking, most of the cleaning AND oh yeah, run my own business...so I don't think it's at all unreasonable to expect that my sweet babboo do basic, necessary stuff like putting out garbage and composting, bringing in firewood, splitting kindling, and yes, doing the frickin dishes.

Model is my friend Dave, whose southpawed'ness actually came in handy here - in subsequent shots I had him use his right hand, and he peeled further and further back from the sink.

Do it on 1 January, get it over and done for the whole year! Hehe.

I make the bed, tidy up, and bring her tea a few times per day. Oh yes and I look after the swimming pool. Such a hard life!

Good idea, funny lables on the gloves. Maybe focus should be on text on right hand (or the lip of the blue dish may work)
