I give myself a 1.

I can't cook for the life of me. I'm lucky if I pop a bag a popcorn without burning it.

So you can't drive, and you can't cook...is there anything you ARE good at (besides being a prissy moron)?

Damn...where is the House "Oh Snap!" gif when you need it?

[Sugar08]

I'd give myself a 7. I'm pretty good at making up recipes; of course, that means most of my dishes come out as a Caribbean/Asian fusion....

Oh wow...

I would give myself an 8.5. I love to cook and I do it well. I only wish I had the time and the money to devote to cooking the way I would really like to. Sometimes it is far more expensive to cook at home then it is to go out to dinner.

Baking is probably about the same for me.

I can totally vouch for this. I have tried some of her holiday cookie recipes. They are delicious.

I give myself an 8.

9.

I do cook!

[Cardinal026]

I'd say a 7. I'm good at following recipes, and love making little changes to make them my own, but I still need a starting idea/guidance from my latest Cooking Light I do wish I were a little more creative to just whip something up though!

i love to cook...i just haven't mastered the art of cooking in small quantities , but that's ok....soon-to-be-hubby enjoys it and has leftovers to take to work. i don't really care for leftovers so i just freeze half of it and save it for later....like my sauces and etc.

When I think 9 and 10 range.......i'm thinking restaurant chef/owner.

Not someone who whips up "taters and boiled shrimp " and "chili cus it's damn cold out here!! "


I hope you get a blister........on your foot.

7.5

I hate to cook, because I work in a molecular biology laboratory all day and I have measure down to the microliter following protocols (advanced recipes) for PCRs, Westerns, Southerns, et al. I make measurements all day...

By the time I get home, I am tired of measuring ANYTHING!!!

If it is not microwavable, I am not cooking it unless it's pasta...

But, I can make dayum good Honey Mustard Lamb or Rose Petal Quail... And I am a vegetarian!!!

Oh fabulous, go ahead. Make fun of me again. I personally really don't care. No, I can't cook. Is there something wrong with that too? I never had to cook for myself so it makes it kind of hard, wouldn't you think. So what! I had a little accident, and you're the moron just for being a member of this site.

Hi, Kettle.

[OneTimeSBX]

i am a strong 7.5, and feel no need to get much better than that...significant other is a sous chef for a country club! i feel i should stay at my level, that way he gets his moneys worth out of his culinary arts degree!

[1908Revelations]

I would give myself a 6! I can cook well enough, but I avoid doing so at all cost.

I'm about to microwave a panini right now!
