My wife packs my lunches, but there’s often a hair in them
A retired wife packs generous soups, salads and leftovers for her husband’s work lunches, but he’s noticed hairs in them and doesn’t want to seem ungrateful.
Dear Eric: My wife is retired and does the majority of grocery shopping and cooking. For the past year or so she has also insisted on packing me a lunch to take to work.
I’m a teacher and bringing lunch has been part of my daily routine for years (there’s no time in the school day to go out to lunch). She packs things like soups, salads or leftovers from dinner the night before. This is very generous and I appreciate that she wants to help make my workweek a little easier.
