Cooking

Cooking regular healthy, interesting meals takes a lot of planning and preparation. A person can spend endless hours looking up recipes, let alone actually cooking anything. After the planning is done, the daunting task of shopping begins, assembling all needed ingredients in one place as well as the tools needed to prepare everything.

Anyone who denigrates the cook should be set out on the steps to smell the food and be deprived of the opportunity to eat.

Our society tends to undervalue domestic skills. It is a shame when we all have the ability to appreciate the results of well cooked food, a clean and well ordered house, and comfortable surroundings. As a matter of fact, domestic skills should be at a premium of appreciation if not pay in our busy society where many people are working 60+ hours a week.
