Why I will never be a housewife.
*shakes hand around* My fingers are all numb and tingly after hemming a pair of jeans. Getting a tiny needle through denim is hard work. (And constant work, at least for me. Would it kill people to sell "short" lengths of any kind of pants? Would it? I could totally keep them in business!)
On a similar home ec. topic, I always forget exactly how much I hate baking cookies until I do it again, at roughly six-months-to-one-year intervals. They sound like such a good idea, but very few things are worth that amount of effort and frustration. But at least I have a box full of chocolate chip cookies now. That's nice. (...Even if store-bought ones actually taste better. Sigh.)
