Get the peas in the bag you can just steam in the microwave.

I'm in the same boat when left with my kid for dinner. I can go to McD's and have her eat shitty food and get covered in nasty germs in the playland but she'll eat everything and have fun for at least an hour while I'm left alone with my phone to post garbage on this site or I can make her something healthyish at home and interact with with like a real parent. Need to work on choosing the good one.


Dude, you're doing it all wrong. If you go out for dinner, go to a restaurant or diner. There are benefits...

- They'll think your kids are cute and people will naturally like you (not really a big deal, but it's nice)
- They'll give your kids free yogurt or dessert so you save a couple bucks (or if you wouldn't have gotten it for them, they just get a free treat)

But best of all...

People will think you're a single parent and wait on you hand and foot. Go to a Greek diner and, if you really sell it, they'll try to hook you up with their daughters and nieces. It's usually disgusting and not even worth consideration, but it's at least worth looking at a photo. I'm sure the owners would babysit while you hit that shit.

i am sure JUAN can make a great can of peas? But of course we need the expert FRABK to let us know how to use a can opener because his brother in law showed him!

your first mistake was asking a 2 year old what they want to eat.

you decide what they eat. you give them dinner, and they eat it if they like it or not. if they really dont want it, thats fine, tomorrow will be something different.

you are setting yourself up for a life of whining.

I've always been worthless, but tonight it really hit me.

My wife is out so I'm watching my daughter alone. Whenever that happens, we usually order in or go out for dinner. But tonight was gonna be different. My 2 year old daughter and I were going to stay in and make dinner and hang out. I even bought her a new Play-Doh set so we could do the activities.

So, after playing a little, I ask her what she wants for dinner and let her go through the fridge and freezer. She picks out pickles, peas, and chicken strips. Sounds great!

I then realized I don't know how to make peas. Peas. Fucking peas! I read the instructions, and all they talked about was some contraption called a vegetable steamer. So I got cocky and went rogue, throwing the peas in a pot on the stove with a little water. Well, apparently it wasn't enough water because it burnt the fucking peas to a crisp and set off the fire alarm. I'm still waiting on the chicken. The pickles seem to be a success at this juncture.

I fancy myself as some sort of cock of the walk because I go into depositions and fuck with lawyers... But the truth is I'm a sad individual who has never even cooked peas and can't even figure out how without instructions.

My daughter has been looking at me with disgust ever since. How the fuck did I even make it this far in life?

Who better to give you advice about peas than a guy who doesn't eat meat?

Wrong. Eating peas or corn, or both, with mash potatoes is delicious.


My wife ordered the Risotto Carbonara tonight. Peas, brah.

Exactly.

This is your wife's fault. There should not be peas in the house to begin with.

I wish I could tell you that this daddy daughter thing is going to get better....but it isn't.


At least you don't have to deal with two boys who will take off their pants, and play with their balls on the couch. It's like I live in a Frat house.

Agreed, but Chas seemed to shake it off pretty well.

Kinda surprised that anyone your age wouldn't head for the microwave first thing, but kudos for trying. My son and I still like to make breakfast together, he'll be 21 in a couple months.

You don't know what you don't know. When our oldest had an ear infection and I was left alone for the evening/bed time duties, I chose to give him his ear drops orally. Guess it could have ended worse for both of us...

This will make me sound douchey, but I don't like feeding my daughter anything that was heated in a microwave. I'm like 3 steps from being an anti-vaxxer.

Don't you have to use a microwave to heat up formula or breast milk or whatnot occasionally when they're younger?

Yes, I always asked my wife to heat up her breast milk in the microwave before serving.

My kids like canned or fresh peas. Frozen peas go in soups or casseroles. My advice is learn to make 5-10 (or more) real meals, your wife and kids will be so thankful. Vegetable steamers are great. I had McD's or Taco hell when my mom worked. You could do a lot worse than burnt peas.

My dad will always be one of the people I admire and love the most. I don't have brothers and sisters. The relationship changes over time but there is something very special about a father daughter relationship. If she knows she is loved, you have fun together, and you take her side when she is right and don't take her side when she is wrong, you'll be okay.

From what I've heard many women pump the milk in advance if they are busy or won't be able to at the time.

Anyway, this is the gayest conversation we've ever had or will have, I was just pointing out the idiocy in demonizing microwaves.

You're not wrong, and my wife did. I really do try to avoid the microwave for my daughter, though. For me, I don't care... lost cause. But I do try to heat things up without radiation if at all possible when I'm feeding the little monster.

Yes, but you aren't supposed to microwave the milk. Use a bottle warmer like this one.

She didn't pump the milk and freeze it? My wife had to pump a couple times each day at work. They gave her an office to use, so she could be alone.

UMN JR enjoys his room temp formula just fine. I didn't know heating it up was a thing. That stuff smells like ass already....the warmer the worse.

My first born never tasted formula until he was nine months old.
