      It is just my wife and I. We will alternate the cooking, every other day. Who ever doesn’t cook, does the clean up.

        Whom ever. It mostly depends on who has time. There is agreed upon meal plan so there’s a list of recipes we plan on going through during the week. We usually break out who does what based on skill and interest, then people will make snacks or in-between meals as needed.

              My wife mostly because she doesn’t work full time and she’s an incredible cook. When she doesn’t want to then I usually grill up something.

                MF couple. The male half (me) does the cooking. We just kind of divided up household chores and I ended up cooking because I'm good at it, I enjoy doing it, and she doesn't.

                    We cook together. I chop and I might make a dressing if necessary, she does the rest.

                      I did until recently. My partner wants a better relationship with food and thinks cooking will help with that.

                      So now we both do cooking on different days. I make what I know and they do Hello Fresh meals.

                      Its been great!

                        My partner and I love cooking together.
                        Sometime only I will cook, sometime only she will cook bit 80% of the time we cook together or at least help each other

                          My spouse and I.

                          We tend to split everything quite naturally between us two, but maybe it's because we have had quite some time to learn to do so? We're slowly getting close to 30 years living together.

                          That being said, I never do bakery/pastries because I don't like doing that (I just like to eat them) whereas she loves it. But I'll do all the laundry because she doesn't like doing it and I don't mind.

                              She used to do it until I got tired of all the greasy stuff and went vegan. Best choice ever. If you ever think for a sec...hmmm this is bad food, go vegan and don't look back.

                                  She's not a morning person, so I cook breakfast and do all the baking.

                                  She used to be a professional chef, so she cooks dinner most nights.

                                  The kids each have one or two dishes they can prepare for lunch to feed each other.

                                  The cats are useless layabouts and don't even bring us hunting trophies anymore.

                                        Both of us; it makes everything better and really brought our cooking to a new level.

                                        On days that when that isn’t possible; whoever doesn’t cook has to clean up after.

                                          Anyone but me. I’ll do the laundry, the dishwasher, cleaning, gardening, driving, etc. I just hate cooking.
