honey do list

Partner's task queue

A honey do list is a list of household chores or repairs that one spouse asks the other to complete—typically a wife assigning tasks to her husband.

The name comes from requests beginning "Honey, do this" or "Honey, do that": He spent Saturday working through his honey do list.

Also spelled honey-do list.
