Do you like cooking? If so, what do you like to make? If not, what do you wish you could make for yourself or someone else? I do not enjoy cooking; the only reason I even do it is because I've got 4 other mouths to feed, and they need a healthy home cooked meal. I really would like a bigger kitchen and more cooking utensils, such as pots and pans, so I can experiment with new recipes. Really, I do not have a favorite recipe, because I love pizza you can cook from Kroger's deli- and technically, that's not my recipe. I would enjoy maybe taking a few cooking classes so I can expand what I know how to cook and what I cook. So then I can cook for everyone in my family, maybe even have a nice get together, don't you think? Have a nice day=)

i've already accepted that cooking is not for me..i've tried cooking a couple of times but i'm not really good at it..but even though i don't cook i enjoy watching cooking shows on tv..if given a chance i want to learn how to cook our local cuisines..i want to share the knowledge to other people..i want them to know how delicious and succulent our cuisines are..

I agree to some extent. I like baking more than cooking. I don't want to cook meat, but I could cook something easier, like pasta. I can't really cook big dishes like roast pork. I just find no interest in it. I'll stick to my easy recipes and cookies and cakes for now.

I have enjoyed cooking for a long time. Home Economics in junior high school was my introduction. I loved baking things at first. It was a littlwe bit easier for me to start that way. Now i am involved in all aspects of cooking. Italian dishes such as pasta are some of my favorites to make.

I love cooking special meals when I feel like eating something good. Experimenting new recipes from other countries is very interesting. New tastes, new flavors are giving a kind of joy and pleasure. I have a lot of cooking books and reviews and love to experiment from time to time new recipes, especially on certain occasions or holidays.

As far as I am concerned, I think I am a good cooker that I will usually try my best to cook at home . In my house, my mother usually cook food for the whole family. But if there is a day that no one but me at home, then I will just try my best to cook the so delicious for myself. I just want to cookk food when there is nobody else in my house, in that way, I think I can enjoy my cooking so much. The most delicious that I usually cook is that patato with eggs together. Have a nice day.

I enjoy cooking, it is one of my interests. I think I am talented in cooking. Especially if I have a good mood, my dishes will be quite delicious. I put some of my receipts via the net and this is my link http://youless.poco.cn/ Besides, I also made a group called DIY cooking in a social networking here. And the members are over 1200 people:) I love China

i enjoy cooking and i love watching cooking shows because its where i get my ideas, but i don't like precision cooking like baking where you have to measure everything to make.

I wasn't a person with passion for cooking earlier, but now because I've moved half way around the world and so much miss my type of food back from where I came from (Thailand), so rapidly, I started to take interest in cooking and find it really interesting and unbelievably 'easy'. I love Thai food (of course), Korean food, would also love to experiment stake and cake from time to time. Being able to 'passionately' cook for family and your love ones I think is fantastic. It is one of the best ways to show you care for and love them so much you want them to enjoy delicious food and become healthier in the process. ;)

oh my gosh good question. I like to search for new recipes and try them. Im not the best cook, but my family has its favorites. Now, baking that's different. Sure i can follow a recipe but comes out ok. My fiance and the other hand is a great cook and baker. He made these bomb cookies the other night! Dang he should sell them! Like i always tell him he would make a great wife one day! hahaha :) I would like to take classes just so you know what spices, seasonings would go together and make your own recipe. I never use salt, for example for fear of over salting. but i think that would be fun!
