Cooking Options

[sixfive]

Well I guess first off, do you cook? How long have you been cooking for? What got you into cooking? Do you cook for fun or for practicality or for economic reasons?

I'll answer the question since I also asked lolololl - I've cooked since fourth grade, taught by my dad, and I cook for enjoyment / experimentation with foods/flavors. It also ended up being a nice skill to have especially from a female friend perspective :] but that's far from why I cook.

Second, how are you when you're cooking? For instance, last time I cooked I had a couple friends over whom I was cooking for. I told them to do whatever they wanted for about thirty minutes, tv, computer, wii, xbox, ps3, dogs, whatever they so desired. They wanted to help me cook, though :( I can't cook with other people unless they know exactly what I want them to do. I've cooked with my dad (he taught me how) since fourth grade so we can share a kitchen fairly well. We'll split up the chores and just go at it. My friends realllly wanted to help me cook though, so I didn't want to be an ass and say no so I had them do simple things that would hopefully take up a lot of time.

I don't like sharing a kitchen, at all. When I cook everything's going through my head in a way that if I tried to explain it I would sound like a babbling fool, but it all makes perfect sense to me.

I've been cooking since elementary school (6 years old or so, though nothing fancy at that point). My mom was a single parent with 3 small children. As the oldest, I helped out a lot in the kitchen.

I cook for both fun and practicality. I would say moreso for health than ecomonic reasons.

I'm great when I'm cooking? How are you? :p

I can't deal with other people in the kitchen while I'm cooking. It makes me crazy. Maybe it wouldn't be such a big deal if the kitchen was bigger but right now, I kick people out. I'm also very particular about things so if people stay out of my way, the less arguing there will be.
