I think it's a valid question especially since most guys, single guys, eat crappy take out lol. I can cook, but he better be able to also. No different than other questions I may ask of him based on my needs
What's the big deal??... Woman keep asking if I can kill a spider...
Can you?
Do not kill spiders. Kill mosquitos. Please don't ask me why.
@Surfpirate Not telling ?......wait, you know what, I'll tell you but first, can you cook? ????
@Countrywoman ha ha... don't need to ask, it does make sense !!!! ?
@IamNobody like a house on fire, invite me over and we'll see what's left of your house after the flambe'.
@Surfpirate soooo tempting but, I kinda like to keep my house ??????
@IamNobody Don't worry, you can just rebuild it, even better than the original.
@Surfpirate Naahhh...rain check
There is also an assumption among some that all women can cook or are pro cooks... this becomes evident in the phrase do you like to cook? Or do you wanna cook together? ummm no.
Sometimes it's a way to learn what are her favorite dishes... Since I do most of the cooking i am curious to know.. You can also swap recipes
Good point although I have heard more than a few women relate how many men on dating sites are really just looking for a nurse/maid/cook and not a life partner.
Dinner tonight was a spicy, yellow fin tuna poke bowl over a bed of sushi rice, the house is almost finished from design to construction, except for the plumbing because I really hate plumbing.
@MissKathleen It would be a bit of a trip but you're welcome to drop by my cottage on Thursday for lunch if you like, it will take you that long to drive here if you leave right now.
@MissKathleen This Thursday would be a safer bet, I have no idea where I'll be on any given Thursday beyond this one.
I can cook and build stuff. But am sarcastic and speak my mind. Maybe that's why I am still single ?
Maybe you haven't found the man yet that is worthy of you.
@Surfpirate possibly but I haven't given up!
I cook, my husband cooks, our daughter cooks, & our sons cook. Daughter also built an outdoor koi pond!
I thought it particularly funny because I am a retired master builder and my favourite hobby is gourmet cooking. My wife cooks a little now but for the first decade I did all of the cooking because I'm a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to food - my wife says kitchen Nazi just because I stabbed a dinner guest in the hand who wouldn't stop reaching in and grabbing bits of sashimi off my cutting board, he barely bled at all - the big baby.
Yeah, well and just 'cause I can, don't mean I'm going to. If you're in my house and over the age of 12 and can't feed yourself, well, you'll just have to starve.
