i wouldnt say I was a dirty cook, or a clean cook but a disorganized. I tend to forget what I am doing and what I have done. It come with my OCD and my poor short term memory. I also stress out very easly when in a time crunch.

I always clean as I cook. I like to for safety reasons of cross contamination and also I don't like to have a huge mess when I'm finished and I find it a lot easier to clean up as I go. Now my mother...bless her heart... it looks like a bomb went off in her kitchen every time she cooks a meal! LOL But she's allowed cause she's a good cook! and I aint sayin' nothin'

OMG! My mother is the same way, and we live in the same house! She has her own apartment downstairs, and hen we all moved in together, I insisted that she have a kitchen installed, because there was NO WAY I would ever share one with her. She's a really good cook, too, but such a mess!

Growing up I was tought to cleanup as I cook and I do put things back where they belong when I'm finished using them while cooking. I heard a report about not using detergents and chemicals while cooking because it can cause more harm than good and I agree so I just wait until after I'm finished cooking to really clean the kitchen.

I usually clean the area while cooking, I don't like messing up while cooking, i think , women are most likely do the same thing than men, but men are so good when it comes to cooking though, it would be hard for them to cook while taking up all the mess they have made while cooking.

i clean as i go, can't stand a messy kitchen. i run dishwater as soon as i go into cook & have about everything washed up by the time the meal is ready.

I'm always cleaning as I cook.
As soon as I make a mess I clean it up.
I don't like a messy kitchen.
