I am a mom that really enjoys cooking, when I am in the mood. I would honestly say that I enjoy cooking and baking more during the fall and winter months than in the summer. With the high heat temperatures in California during the summer months, I try to use as little heat in the kitchen as possible. That means no using any cookers such as my oven in the kitchen during the summer when the temperatures are in the triple digits because my house becomes miserable with the heat. For the evenings when it is really hot, we tend to take the family out for pizza or something where I am not using my own oven.
One appliance that does come in handy during the summer months throughout the years have has been our microwave ovens. I love that my older two daughters are old enough to use the microwave to make themselves and their siblings a snack after school. There are so many different appliances that make cooking a breeze these days. Since I LOVE to cook, I have so many different appliances. Just to name a few, I have an ice cream maker, waffle maker, mini-cupcake maker, slow cooker and a ton more.
So what kind of cook are you?
Do you do the cooking for your family or does someone else. Leave me a comment, I would love to know…..
Hub and I both cook, our oldest is almost 13 so she is also starting to help out more and can use some appliances on her own! With so many after school activities we’ve been eating out a ton lately though.
I am an experimental cook and love just tossing in the seasonings to get a new taste. Like you though I prefer cooking and baking in the fall and winter when it’s not so stinking hot in the house.
I’m a culinary student so I do most of the cooking when I am home but hubs will use the microwave but we use the induction cooktop a lot.
I always cook for my family. Occasionally we order out but not very often
I love cooking.I want to try everything to cook.I want using our oven making cup cakes.
I cook non-veg regularly… Deals Monkey
I do love to cook, however not in my kitchen! It’s just way to small, but I still like to cook!
I’m a southern cook stuck in the midwest. lol Really, I love cooking greasy, butter filled homestyle food that would make most people scream “heart attack”. My husband on the other hand can (and has) burn water.
