I'd say I cook for my guy at least four times a week. He never asks, but I usually ask him if he's hungry and make extra of whatever I'm having.

I like to cook for my wife. I seem to do a fair amount of cooking, fire department etc.

I cook for my husband daily.... and he reciprocates when grilling is involved (and for breakfast - he makes a mean omelet!).

I think it's official, men are in charge of breakfast... at least in our household.

Course, it's about the only thing I'm in charge of....

You wear the pants, she tells you which pair to wear.

I do all the cooking.

I don't cook that well but my boyfriend loves to cook. I do bake though so sometimes he'll make a nice dinner and I'll bake a cake or cookies.

The way to a man's heart is through is stomach; if you know this, you've caught on well.

I enjoy this as well; I enjoy having a good meal made for me but the reverse as well. Must be the Puerto Rican culture, we show love through the enjoyment of food.

I love to cook but have to be really into a man before it happens. I did bake brownies for a guy I was seeing briefly, but he so didn't deserve them!

Yes. Food is my love language. When I was growing up, my family went to my grandmother's a lot. Everyone was welcome--friends, their parents, neighbors, people from church--and there was always food. I love having everyone at my house and cooking for them. I pack my husband's lunches during the week and cook things he likes. He didn't have to ask me. When he was a bachelor, he made things like "spaghetti eggs." I told him to get out of the kitchen.

What I need is a housekeeper.

I usually cook lunch/dinner. My husband does breakfast, usually in bed complete with coffee.

I actually has not cooked my whole life. NEVER liked it. Even when I had my apartment, I rarely cook.

I can genuinely say though I love cooking now. I love how I just make my own sauce out of whatever condiments we have and it always taste good.

I should join that tv show - franken food I might win with my franken bbq sauce.
