    No, I see it as a necessity like doing the dishes and cleaning the house. I still prefer it to ordering/ eating out because 1) I know the ingredients, so it's healthier 2) it's cheaper.

    I can make a few basics and i don't dislike cooking, but i prefer other people more qualified doing it. I watched my grandmother doing crazy dishes all my youth, i didn't learn much from it, was just awesome to watch from start to finish.

    I cook more often and better than all girls I've met. I don't know in other countries, but in Romania girls under 40 can barely cook, at least something tasty, edible or not gross.

    it doesn't mean that men in Romania cook, they still cook much less than women.

    food industry is strong on here fast food especially

    I dislike cooking and I only do it out of necessity. I am decent baking cakes & cookies though.

    I don't mind cooking but it's time consuming, also it can be frustrating, when my dishes don't turn out as tasty or appetising as I wanted. Even so, I would 100% prefer to stick to more simple recipes ( boiled eggs ) and eat what I cook, than to eat fast food.
    I rarely cooked for other people, but my impression is they found my food not great, but acceptable .

    I used to dislike it when younger (early twenties) and considered it a waste of time but with the years that changed. Nowadays i have no particular feelings towards it, it's just part of a normal daily routine.

    Yes, I do cook (almost) daily, but I've lost the passion of making my own Teriyaki sauce, or caramelized onions like I used to back in my student days. We also used to make our own signature alcohol by hacking some Kvass recipes.

    Now, I will make some rather simplistic salads, some omelettes (Faklon's strapatsada), (grilled) meats, spaghetti (especially carbonara with village sausage).

    You should still consider me for the position.

    I do love cooking, but after making every meal from scratch for the past 18 years, i've finally grown tired of it. So, instead of elaborate dinners every night, i now only do 2 a week. I still cook from scratch every day, but i've found ways to keep it simple. I recently started using minced garlic that comes in a jar and pre sliced mushrooms. The chopping and mincing of veggies is what gets me. And now that my kids are teenagers i have them cook a couple dinners a week too.
