I can smell the most awesome pot roast cooking as I type, and he's also making Yorkshire pudding, cole slaw and REAL banana pudding for dessert.

:D

12. I once had...
a man who made a mean homemade jalapeno pizzo--but then he worked as caterer/cook. But nothing beats my mother's Mexican home cooking--aaaahhhh--the tamales, the mole sauce and chicken, home made beans, rice, taquitos, enchiladas, etc. I'm hungry now...

5. I'm spoiled too.
My hubby is both the 'cook' and the 'chef' in our household; he is the 'griller' too.

My hubby and daughter believe that it has to be that way, because they believe that they would die if they ate my cooking (it is pretty bad).

I'm an official SLACKER (but I'm not stoned).

7. I wouldn't know about that. I'm the "cook," if you can call it that,
in this house.

On the plus side, I haven't done dishes in 13 years.

11. Erm...if I ever get married, I'll BE the husband that cooks.
Unless I marry a woman who likes to cook more than I do. :D

15. I used to have a husband like that...
Edited on Thu Feb-17-05 06:59 PM by Radio_Lady
Unfortunately, he walked out on me after the second kid was born and he now cooks for some other person.

Good luck to him! He's overweight, has a pacemaker for his heart and just had surgery for tumors in his bladder. I did love him for eleven years and wish him no ill. He is still the father of my two children.

16. Yes, I do!
He doesn't cook as often as he used to as he gets home rather late but he cooks on weekends and it's always so much better than the same old stuff that I prepare.

Your dinner sounds marvelous! Enjoy. :hi:

17. personally, I love having a BF
who likes to clean up after I cook!

I tend to leave little bits of onion strewn about the kitchen, pots in the sink, goop on the counters.

Presto-magic boyfriend takes care of all that, because he really likes my cooking. So it works out! :)

22. yeah, I love the cooking part and I am a MESSY cook, so I
need a really anal cleanup artist to follow me around and clean up. Unfortunately my husband and daughter are not those people.

However, I have cooked for large groups in situations where I did have an anal retentive clean freak keeping up with me in the sink and hot water end of the kitchen. We had a ball!!!!!

18. How does he make the Yorkshire Pudding?
This was my favorite dish as a kid. My Grandma died and I didn't have it for 10 plus years. Then, as a treat, my Mom made it for me using my Grandma's recipe. My Mom didn't know that I had been a vegetarian for 6 months. I ate it and got so sick. You put the roast on top of the pudding so the juices drip down on the pudding during cooking.

I'm jealous. My husband rarely cooks.

20. Sounds better than what I'm cooking.
I'm experimenting with beef tostadas and Spanish rice. My mom left me express instructions NOT to burn down the house attempting to cook, such little faith she has in my culinary abilities. :P

21. I L-O-V-E being the "audience"
for men who cook. It's my #1 requirement. I HATE cooking but will happily clean up the mess. Division of labor and all that... Just FEED ME!
