Preparing meals your own self gives much pleasure and immense satisfaction. Once you tend to have the importance of self made meals you would never go out for a dinner at places which use what not things to make your palate sweet and sour. Oh for those yummy home made recipies, you'll love them all, if nicely made, oven grilled or baked

I agree with you that when you cook a meal for the family you feel some satisfacttion especially when they show you they enjoy it. However if i were a bit richer i would enjoy going to a restaurant, say once amonth, it is a nice treat than having to cook everyday.

I agree gr... as I have already posted my husband would never stand for takeout or even going out to a nice restaurent very often. He feels like he hasen't had (real) food. On the other hand it feels good to go out on occasion just to get a night off from standing over the stove. Even if I throw somethng in the slow cooker before I go to work preparations have to be made to get everything put together. I love when the family is all home at one time and we can sit down at the table together. My husband is old fashioned when it comes to cooking he dosen't hardly know how to make a sandwich. I just wish he was old fashioned about the wie working outside the home. lol

There is nothing better than a home cooked meal. If I'm busy with everything that life holds and have to get takeout a couple times a week my husband complains that he feels he hasen't had real food. I just wish I could make a meal taste like my grandma did. It's to bad that she usually didn't use recipes she just knew what went in what. Her house burned and the ones she did use are gone. My mom and I are forever trying to copy things she made we get pretty close but not quite there. Anyone with any good (grandma) recipes let me know I would love to try some.

It is always better to prepare meals at home. Avoid all fancy coloring and flavoring agents. Prepare from natural items, vegetables, etc rather than processed and preserved foods.
Going to restaurants One or two times in a month is ok for a change.
I can't cook in a better way. But I can cook basic meals eatable at least for my family in emergency cases. My wife used to cook better foods, she can make nice meals, snacks and desserts.
Peace.

Yes, i also likes to prepare my own meals rather than spending money and eat outside. Since the economic recession, my family had spend less time eating outside. We rather buy more food and cook at home, since we can cook the dishes according to our preference. Besides that, you will discovered that you can saved a lot of money by preparing own meals at home. Another thing is, it's very clean to eat meals prepared by own self.

I only make and prepare meals when there is an occasion at home. I'm to lazy to cook, Especially when I came home from work, am just so tired. I also have mylot and other stuffs. It really does give us satisfaction when we make our meal. It's like we could conquer the world.
