Re: Question for the SAHMs

If by cooking you mean heating up something from the frozen food case at Bj's then I guess it's me

I used to cook actual meals before I got PG. my morning sickness took away my desire to cook and it never came back.

This summer DH barbecued a lot which was helpful, although our old grill actually caught fire one of those times, but hey it was a night off for me

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Me...or we'd starve. AND I cook for me, and A different dinner for DH ( Im on WW) and for the Dog ( she gets rice and chicken) and of course Noah gets veggies...

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Me.

But if I want take-out, or to be taken out, DH will do it. Whatever I want.

I make a lot of (excuse me but) Super Suppers....

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Re: Question for the SAHMs

We both love to cook.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

I do! Granted, some nights will be chicken burgers thrown on the Foreman grill, but, I do cook.

I admit, on weekends, we usually go out.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

I am a SAHM and a WAHM so DH cooks every night...he cooks well...I dont...the end

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Me. My husband will cook on the rare occasion.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

I cook 5 nights a week, and we either go out to eat 1night or order pizza. Dh will cook only breakfast usually on Sundays and only for himself (he makes eggs and no-one else in the house eats eggs), Also SOMETIMES he BQ in the summer (more like starts it, then I finish)

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Me. DH doesn't cook...he only grills - and that doesn't happen very often.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Me.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

my mom

Re: Question for the SAHMs

I do!

Re: Question for the SAHMs

i do most of the time.. in the crock pot... so i dont have to worry about it... sometime dh brings food home with him on his way home from work.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

90% of the time I do, once in a while he will.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Me- I usually do it in the morning or during naptime so I just have to cook it or heat it up at dinner time. I also find it helpful to make a ton of stuff on Sunday to prepare for the week.

I'll buy a ton of ground beef, make a meat sauce for lasagna, some chili, some tacos, Some things I will freeze and others stay on the weeks menu.

Or make some chicken, then use it for enchiladas, caesar salads, etc.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

DW. She's always cooked, even before DC. She is good at it, whereas I've never had to cook. I went from mom's to college, to living with DW. I never really learned. Plus, she enjoys cooking (most of the time... )

I'll mention how good a meal is, and she'll say "Oh, it's really simple, just take some chop meat, add some rice, some spices, ......"

Me:"Uh.... you lost me after the first ingredient..... "

Re: Question for the SAHMs

I'm not sure you can call what I do cooking but I take care of dinner most of the time or we do take out (too often), but he does dishes and takes care of the baby at night, bath and bedtime so it's a good trade off.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Me.... DH doesn't know how to cook (the guy can basically build a house but he "don't get it" when I try to explain how to make macaroni and cheese -OUT OF THE BOX- ).

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Sh*t!!!! I'm supposed to cook too!

Man, I knew I should have read the brochure first!!!! Well, he hasn't complained yet, so I'm not about to remind him what was supposed to be included in the "package".

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Hope you do n't mind me answering even though I'm not a SAHM I work F/T, but I cook dinner every night.

I like cooking and I am not very fond of take out, plus I also like bring my lunch to work everyday.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

I've only recently gotten into cooking (before then I never cooked and we basically did frozen foods or takeout) but since we're eating healthier, I have been doing all the cooking..
DH gets home too late to make it worth it

Re: Question for the SAHMs

DH is away most weeks Mon-Thurs, so I'm off the hook M,Tu, Wed. When it's just me, I eat either leftovers from the weekend, Lean Cuisines, cereal, or a salad. I try to make something for when he gets home Thurs. night. Weekends usually he cooks or we go out. I'm trying to cook more. I know he really appreciates it when I do. I just find it very hard to add that to taking care of DD.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Me! And with a newborn, I must say I dont know what I would do without my crock pot.

Re: Question for the SAHMs

Now that I stopped working, I cook all of the time or we do take out or go out. DH will grill if we are having steak or burgers. When I was working, I cooked most of the time as well. DH will cook on weekends though, which is great.
