How many other guys do most of cooking

[gizmo1979]

in their house.Just checking to see how odd it is that I do most of the cooking at our house.I enjoy cooking but hate cleaning up.The wife says as long as I cook she'll clean.Seems fair to me.

1. I do one night on the weekend and if I get home early...

...one the weekdays. Been known to do a few loads of laundry too.

[johnnie]

2. I do it all

Of course I am single :)

But when I still lived at home I did a lot of the cooking for the family. When I was living with my ex I did all the cooking for her and me. A lot of the men I know do the majority of cooking in the family.

3. I cook

I do most of the cooking around here by choice. I also do all the grocery and household shopping.

(Hint: make her real happy, clean as you cook)

15. I try to clean as I go

but I often get carried away and it's disaster.

[ceile]

4. My SO does

I cook slow and he gets impatient. Fine with me, I have no problem cleaning up afterwards.

[EstimatedProphet]

5. I do

I am a genius in the kitchen though

[gizmo1979]

17. I'm not bad

not a genius but I don't get any complaints.

6. When my boyfriend comes for one of his extended visits

He does all the cooking and I do all the cleaning. When he isn't here, I just eat cereal and soup. One bowl, one microwave.

7. I do, or did before I separated. Actually, I guess I still do, but since I

don't cook for my wife anymore, it seems kind of like a different thing than what you were getting at, if you know what I mean. Like, I cook, but who else would do it, you know? My cat? Riiigggghhhhtt. Anyway... Oh, never mind.

BTW, my wife always said she would clean if I cooked. She never did!!!!!! I just wanted to get that off my chest.

[gizmo1979]

18. That's just wrong

sounds like you're lucky she's your ex.

8. I do all the cooking

for myself and my roomie (female). I clean up, too. I'm hoping some hot celebrity might need a houseboy someday. (Demi...call me!)

[WCGreen]

9. I do about 85% of the cooking....

[Robb]

10. Yo!

:hi:

Cleaning, too, actually. But the deal is she takes care of the bathrooms. I'm down. :D

[Xipe Totec]

11. I don't

I bow to my spouse's superior culinary expertise. Once she downloaded all I knew about Mexican cooking, she no longer allowed my to cook anything (I cook well, but I'm a very messy cook).

She allows my sons to cook; one is the outdoor grilling and Russian food expert, the other does Italian and Japanese.

I only get to cook when we do a Cajun deep fried turkey, or a crawfish boil.

19. I'm also a messy cook.

She likes cleaning for some reason.

12. Me

My wife hates to cook and had a poor role model anyway.

Here is an one of her mother's actual recipes.
Chicken Jubilee.
Take one whole chicken and place in roasting pan. Open one can or fruit cocktail and pour on top. Roast until no juices come out of chicken when poked with a fork.
Serve chicken with drippings from the pan (this is called gravy)
Make sure it is a Kosher chicken so it comes out extra dry.

[gizmo1979]

21. You'd better have lot's of stuff to

drink with that chicken.Wow that's awful what was the fruit cocktail for.

[seemunkee]

25. To add flavor

Believe me it is far better than her broiled flounder filet w ketchup

[Deja Q]

13. If I didn't, I'd starve to death.

:rofl:

[gizmo1979]

23. There's always takeout.

That's all I ate when I was single.

[Mutley]

14. My ex did most of the cooking.

But he was a professional chef so...

That is one reason why I say don't regret your exes. You learn from them. If not for my ex I'd still be cooking outta the microwave. :D

[matcom]

16. checking in

:hi:

[Tripper11]

20. I do 98% of it.

I am home in the afternoon's so it only seems fair that I do it. I like cooking and trying new recipes. Cleanup sucks, but it's all part of it.

[gizmo1979]

24. I also like new recipes.

That's the main reason I like to cook.I hate eating the samething all the time too.

[cobalt1999]

22. I make most of the restaurant reservations,

does that count?

[bearfan454]

26. I do ALL the cooking

I like it that way too. Mrs bearfan likes it too.

[tigereye]

27. my husband and I split it

he's really good with Indian and Thai dishes, I do the more conventional pasta and chicken type stuff, and he also cleans up better than I do.
