Ladies: do you cook?

Nope. I can cook pesto pasta with veg. But I've chosen NOT to learn to cook. I hate multi-tasking in the kitchen. My brain won't accept that you can have more than 1 thing cooking at the same time. Brain does not comprehend.

I haven't started yet (Asian food takes forever), but I do help out my mum sometimes...
The only reason I am asking is because my parents are always having a go at me eg
Girls your age cook
Girls younger than you cook
What are you going to do when I am not at home (mum)
No-one will want to marry you
etc.
I intend to start proper cooking this summer before going off to uni just so they will stop nagging me. So yeah the question in the title

I always see your threads on the main page when I log in, calm it! :cool:

Yeah, I love cooking and baking (when I can be bothered- it's usually when I'm asked to).

I seldom eat a meal that I've prepared, though. My mum said I've inherited dad's habit of eating while I cook, so I'm pretty full by the time it's all on a plate.

Yes I used to love it when I was 8 to 11 because I wanted to try recipes and stuff but now I don't enjoy it as much. I still cook though

I do all the cooking in our house. I buy the groceries, work out what we're eating, if my Mum isn't in then I plate it up and she reheats it or I set aside something she can do. I find it funny when I go to other peoples houses and their parents do all the cooking and washing and stuff. Still, it doesn't stop her from nagging me!

You get PAID to make dinner? My god.

More guys I know can cook well than women, it's really quite shocking and/or appalling.

Yep. I'm pretty good :smile:

Better at baking though! My mum's a great cook, so I've made the most of the opportunity to learn from her.

I do cook, although I hated cooking all through uni because it was dull just cooking for myself, I enjoy it now though - I love cooking our Christmas dinner and I bake a fair amount too.

Finding a girl who doesn't cook is like finding liquid water that isn't wet.

I help our cook when she's cooking but I don't think I've ever cooked an entire meal by myself. I make noodles and scrambled eggs though =]

Yes, I love cooking and baking.

Have just whipped up a warm courgette and goat's cheese salad salad for lunch and I've just taken some carrot and orange muffins out of the oven to have with tea later.
