[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 480014, member: 11791"] Got it! Think in REVERSE! 1) He's the short one... he's in charge of all the LOW stuff. Don't know what your kitchen is like, or linen closet... but those LOW shelves are really tough to get into, because my knees are getting old. Boy, what I wouldn't give to have a specialist at getting that low stuff out for me. There's no way his brother can out-short him! 2) Teach him to cook one or two specialty dishes - and his brother is NOT allowed to learn THOSE ones (his bro can learn to cook his own specialties). Can he master soft-boiled eggs? Then he's in charge of making those for Sat a.m. breakfast (or whatever schedule). Pancakes? Cookies? biscuits? Ideally, one of the specialties can be something good enough for company, so his handiwork gets "shown off" and the complements come directly back to HIM. Get creative... CREATE some talents for him.
