Family codes and ritualsFreddy Woo writes, "as a child we used to have a 'whoever cuts doesn't choose the slice' rule with cake. It worked brilliantly, but it's left me completely anal about dividing up food - my wife just takes the piss as I ritually compare all the slice sizes."
What codes and rituals does your family have?

« Go Back
not technically familyBut mr tulip and I have established a tradition whereby any resident (i.e. either me or him) must announce their return to the rest of the household (i.e. either me or him) by blowing enormous raspberries on crossing the threshold.
Even if company's about.
Slightly less childish and much more pleasant - if it's your birthday, we'll ring you up and sing Happy Birthday at you, deliberately off-key, followed by some sort of rugby anthem.
