Hehe, if I cooked for my husband's enjoyment, it would be all bihari kabobs and nihari with sheermal and we'd be a million pounds each  . |

Witholding food is not an effective tactic, and it comes across as slightly immature.

witholding food implies that he is unable to access the food, which is not the case as he is a fully capable adult.

Maybe their kitchen has a lock and only raatkirani has the key  . Hehe. This reminds me of a time I went to a conference and my mom and some of her friends were all worried about what my husband would eat. I was like "nobody worries about what I will eat when he's on call or away". But they didn't understand what I was saying  . |

Even if you cant cook you dont have to go hungry, I'm sure you could make beans on toast or something?

Re: To the girls on Islamica....would you..
I think the right tactic would be to cook, but be silent throughout the meal with a grumpy face.
[Thats what my Mom does when she is trying to show my Dad she is upset with him].
Works.  Sometimes.
