Which hand email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)3 months ago

When you are eating your food, and you need to use a knife and a fork, which hand do you use each utensil in.
I can use both hands for both a knife and a fork.
Its really funny, but my husband cant, he uses his knife in his left hand and his fork in his right, and cant switch them round
He has tried and tried, but he cant cut with the knife in his wrong hand, his right hand rather.

So, which hand do you use for which, and can you switch hands if you want to.

And, which hand do you pick up a drink with, my husband cant pick a drink up witrh his left hand, every time he tries, he spills his milk and I have to clean up the mess.

You know what? I haven't given it much thought. LOL Though now that I think about it, I think that I prefer to use a fork with my left hand and a knife with my right. I can pick up a drink with either, though I prefer to use my left.

Happy mylotting!


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  3 months ago

I reckon its something we do without giving it much thought. You are good though, at least you wont be spilling your drink like I do.

Hi vonmac, have you tried him with a pair of chopsticks as an alternative?

I'm a left hand fork, right hand knife type. However in Greece all the cutting up is done before the meal commences so it is then easier to just eat with a fork in one hand and a cigarette in the other and it doesn't really matter which way round they are held. And yes, some grown women do do the cutting up for their grown up men, and in public too. lol

I would suggest that if you husband has problems spilling his milk you teach him how to wield a clean up cloth.


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  2 months ago

You smoke when eating? Wow, I havent done that for years. They got all politically correct here and banned smoking almost everywhere. I think when it was banned in public places it spread to the home as well and I cant remember the last time I had a ciggie with a meal. Ah those were the days,
I understand that in many places food is cut up prior to it being eaten. I wont cut my husbands food up for him though, but I really dont mind cleaning up the milk he spills, lol


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4081)  2 months ago

Gosh, I really did a stalking job on you earlier didn't Ilol

Greek taverna meals take hours as most of them don't care if the food is hot or not, so light up after every few bites. No one ever clears the table as no one ever knows when the food is finished with. I won't say more as I feel a discussion coming.
You're obviously kinder than me, I wouldn't be cleaning up the spilt milklol


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  2 months ago

Oh if he spills his full cream milk I feel I almost have to clean it up as he usually says he spilled it on my account,
Double entredres galoer their,
Here, the waiting staff seem to keep a watchful eye out and often pounce before the dessert is eaten,


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  2 months ago

All stalkers most welcome!!!


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4081)  2 months ago

Hi vonmac, can't really concentrate on double entrendres right now, I've got a pile of rabbits to go back and attend to, and blue one has gone AWOL when she knows she's meant to keep hopping in there.

Anyway hadn't seen your response here but this best response one brings it up to 100 best responses so many cheers my dear, I am indeed a happy bunny with that one. Thanks.


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4081)  2 months ago

Wrong again, bloody 99, oh well time for the rabbits.


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  2 months ago

Strange, I just fed our bunnies.
100 might be just around the corner, or maybe even 101


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4081)  2 months ago

You have bunnies, well I have the most scintillating discussion up about them now but the blue rabbit is meant to be on hand if anyone starts getting cute about them and she's gone awol, so if you're intending to join in please at least have the decency to pretend you'd rather eat them than play with them. lol


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  2 months ago

I have been meaning to have a good look at your page, but havent got round to it yet
Bunnies, couldnt eat them
If you knew the story of our 2 bunnies, neither could you!!!


myLot reputation of 97/100. thea09 (4081)  2 months ago

So sorry Vonmac my dear, just seen your response on my rather silly discussion. It was just meant to cheer jb up (the blue rabbit avatar). We just never know when foots go in mouths on line, sorry again.


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  2 months ago

No, you musnt be sorry,
I could have taken the lighthearted view and told you about a funny story regarding one of the bunnies

As I said, we found two,
Well one grew into a jet black one, and I asked my son what he wanted to call it
And he said Sooty, so Sooty it was. The Brown one he named Sweep, Sooty and Sweep, kids tv show

He was thrilled to bits, even though he was quite ill and dependant on home oxygen by this stage, his baby bunnies were his pride and joy

Anyway, one of the nurses from the hospital came out to see him and he couldnt wait to show off his bunnies!!!
When he told her the black one was called Sooty her jaw dropped, it really did and she ushered me out of the room and gave me a lecture about teaching and condoning racist behaviour, and how she would report it

Well our boy was ill, not dumb and he heard every word,

He took pleasure in telling her just how far her head up her bum was and picked up two toys and a book, Sooty and Sweep. He explained he wasnt racist and even tolerated English people like her!!! God he was good that day.

When he died and she offered her condolences, there was a wee grin on my face as I told her she best not come to the funeral service,

I know questions were asked due to her absence as she was his main care nurse and had been for a while
After a year, we got a letter of apology

I am a right handy and so I use my right hand for this. I never prefer using spoon,knife or fork as i am not able to use it perfectly.
I eat with my hands.


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  2 months ago

I eat witrh my hands quite a lot as well
I just pick it up and put it in my mouth, yummy

 
5. myLot reputation of 95/100. dawnald (9497)   2 months ago

I'm a righty, so I use my right hand unless I need both. Then I am multi talented. I can do it German style and hold the fork in the left and the knife in the right or I can do it American style and switch back and forth as I need the knife.


myLot reputation of 75/100. vonmac (1446)  2 months ago

American Style, German Style, wow, multi talented indeed
My husband says I should do it Greek style,
