| FOOD In every home the food/cooking seems to fall on one person. Is that the case in your house?

Case scenario's: A good friend of mine handles 99.9% of the food shopping and cooking in his household. Granted, he's on disability due to a back injury while his wife works full time, but I mention him for a reason. It's a guy in the kitchen.

Another only touches the grill and meats associated with grilling and smoking. His neighbor, who works full time as does his wife, handles 100% of his family. And, yet others, are pretty evenly split.

@RollllTide! mentioned a food forum the other day in the thread about site updates. It led me to wonder how many of the folks here spend a lot of time with food.

Over the course of the year, we're probably close to 50-50. It really just depends on the day/week and what's going on with work.

Cooking I would said 30-70% housework more even.

I'm single, so 100% me. I occasionally eat out.

Same, and I appreciate not having to flavor for others tastes.

I do the majority of the cooking, mainly because I am good at it and enjoy it. My wife does all baking as I suck at that.

If on occasion there are others at my house for a meal, they just have to like my flavor or they can eat else where.

Not when I'm off work.

So, that means you're cooking and shopping for every meal...lord only knows what "I'm off work" means in your world.

Clarifying: my wife usually cooks because I'm working so much at night. Unless I'm off. Then I do the cooking, unless she already has a meal planned.

If I were home more at night, we'd split the load. Hell, I enjoy cooking so much I'd probably cook MORE than she does..

I've been referred to as a "BBQ Maestro"... but when NOT on the grill/smoker, I'm probably best at pasta- spaghetti, lasagna, etc. My panko -breaded chicken tenders are pretty nice also.

And desserts. Good lord, desserts. My peanut butter pie is killer. I also "hacked" Zoe's kitchen's chocolate chip cookie recipe and got my version pretty damn close.
