My wife doesn't cook and is very happy leaving ALL the cooking to me.
When we first met the very first time I went to her house there was a
package of chicken parts derosting in her kitchen sink, was defrosting
all day since early morning before she left for work. I tossed it in
the trash and drove to the closest market and bought a chicken for
dinner that night. She didn't even own respectable cookware.
Fortunately her gas oven worked so I prepared the best meal she and
her two kids ever ate.
