    Your partner
    is seriously allergic to any member of the onion/garlic family, even the smell, (I love onions)

    likes veg cooked until it is near mash, e.g. peas just nicely done are "like bullets", carrots with a hint of crunch left in them are "like concrete"

    insists on using the hot tap for everything, even when it is not on long enough to run hot?

    washes things up when we have a dish washer,
    "well it was only........."

    prefers ready made bottled mint sauce to fresh picked and chopped mint with red wine vinegar

    argues about the amount of sugar in a cough medicine cos she's a bit diabetic, yet eats a whole packet of liquorice in an evening (liquorice is about 50% molasses)

    Or am I just being a grumpy intolerant old fart?
