I hate to cook, so it's usually only twice a week. When my children lived with me, I would cook them some dinner every night. Cooking was never my forte'.:grinhappy:

Usually 4-5 times a week...I voted 0-1 times because for the past few weeks I have been to exhausted to cook anything!

Usually 2-3 times per week. Between eating out, ordering in, being tired, and Sean's traveling schedule, there isn't a lot of need to do much cooking.

I would say usually about 2-3 times a week, we always have leftovers though. We use to go out on the weekends but we've been trying to cut back for health and money reasons.

What does root hog mean? I haven't heard that expression.

It means if you can find it you can eat it, if not then go hungry. We have several phrases for such. Such as: water and with it. "findy windies" Just somethings my family started years ago.

I actually cook dinner anywhere from 2-5 times per week. Depends on my mood, and DH's attitude. We had serious problems with this before, where I was cooking everyday, and when I had a horrible day or was completely exhausted and didn't cook, he gave me such an attitude, that I blew up and then didn't cook at all for about 4 months. Now, it's when I want. And if I don't, either he has to, or we go out. I don't like the going out all the time, cause we waste a lot of money that way, but there's no way I'll get back to cooking every day either. One, I don't like it enough. And two, I can't let him come to expect it again either. :D

I cook everything that gets eaten in this house that is more intricate than a PB&J.

Usually about 6-7 times a week. I have kids and a limited income so I usually have to cook in order to feed my kids.

I cook every night, but usually Kev and I are cooking together so it's not so bad. My Mom never cooked we would always go to my grandparents for dinner so I learned at an early age to do all the cooking. Plus at work I cook for 20 kids a days for lunch then I come home and cook there. There are deffinetly nights that I wish we could just graze int he backyard!

Cook Dinner? What does that mean? :)
Hugh does the cooking most of the time and when we are busy (which is most of the time), he knows how to pick up the phone.
Don't get me wrong .... I am a wonderful cook and I was the sole cook for years and years but since we got together, since it's just the two of us, since Hugh is a good cook and since, I couldn't care less if we have PBJ or filet mignon, he took over.
