s/o what's cooking? a poll!
Are you primarily the cook in your house?
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked?
Is he/she any good?
What is your favorite thing they make?
Re: s/o what's cooking? a poll!
Are you primarily the cook in your house? We share the responsibility but I probably more (at least it feels that way).
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked? DH cooks/helps
Is he/she any good? He has meals that he makes --- mostly pasta dishes, indian, chili, and crockpot stuff
What is your favorite thing they make? IndianAre you primarily the cook in your house? We share the duties, but I think the scale is tipped in his favor primarily due to his work schedule.
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked? Volunteers. Many times he knows what I want to make, and he'll call me when I'm on my way home from work to ask if it's ok to start it.
Is he/she any good? Yes! I knew nothing about cooking when we moved in together. He has been (and still is) very patient with me and always willing to teach me.
What is your favorite thing they make? He makes a great bowl of chili.
My little nuggets
Are you primarily the cook in your house? I most certainly am and for the most part am happy to be.
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked? He doesn't volunteer, but he usually only cooks for himself because, well, see below.
Is he/she any good? I think he's pretty terrible, haha. He comes up with these crazy creations and then is surprised when they are terrible. He adds random spices to things to the point where if I try it, I'm choking. A few weeks ago, he made a bastardized version of chicken noodle soup but with tuna. He loved it and I wanted to VOM.
What is your favorite thing they make? Pancakes. He makes fantastic pancakes. He just uses the boxed stuff but adds things that make them extra yummy.
Are you primarily the cook in your house? Yes. I'd say 95%
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked?He is very good at prep work when given specific instructions.
Is he/she any good? Yes. When following a recipe, he follows it to a T.
What is your favorite thing they make? He makes really good chilli. It takes him almost an entire afternoon, but he is so proud of it when its done.
Are you primarily the cook in your house? I make 95% of all meals.
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked? He'll offer to help, and sometimes he'll do some small things. But he's never made a whole dinner for the two of us, I don't think. He'll make burgers and stuff for himself. Occasionally he'll pan fry or saute something.
Is he/she any good? He's pretty good.
What is your favorite thing they make? He makes a good omelet.
Are you primarily the cook in your house? I most certainly am and for the most part am happy to be. ditto jess!
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked? He doesn't volunteer - unless picking up take out on the way home is volunteering.
Is he/she any good? Honestly, I don't think I have ever eaten anything he has cooked. I (clearly) have control issues in the kitchen.
What is your favorite thing they make? He grills in the summer - so anything on the grill.
Are you primarily the cook in your house? About 75%. He is off on Tuesdays, and always cooks a full dinner. The rest of the week, he pitches in when he's around.
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked? He volunters. He enjoys cooking almost as much as I do.
Is he/she any good? Very good, and he keeps getting better.
What is your favorite thing they make? Grilled crab cakes with Mango Salsa...they are company worthy!
Haha!! Could have written this myself! Except my DH volunteers and I haver tried stuff he's cooked, but it hasn't been pretty. I have pretty serious control issues because of that. But now that I have been super tired and working really late, I'll let him do a little bit if I know that it's a tried and true recipe. He likes experimenting, but he's had too many fails. The problem is takes on way too difficult of recipes... but the man can grill!
Are you primarily the cook in your house? Yes. I cook 90% of our meals.
Does your s/o volunteer to cook or run away screaming if asked? DH will cook if I tell him what to make. He does always run the bbq grill.
Is he/she any good? He is good at the few meals he can make.
