I love the fact that we're all being very honest about this.
Most times, I fall flat on my face. But never do I remain on the floor; I rise again.

Cooking gives you a different type of a feeling, just as a good book would, or a movie, or a game or anything you just love doing. All of them have their specific way of filling you up with energy and taking all the bad stuff from the day, gathered from people around you or just from bad stuff happening in your life.

Depends on the circumstance. If I am cooking dinner after work, I probably feel hungry. If I am cooking for a dinner party I might and often do feel tense, hoping it all comes together. Sometimes, I am experimenting and it's fun.

After cooking I usually make public announcements to everyone eating not to complain, I really wish I enjoyed cooking.

I'm a lazy cook. I just wanna eat and get it over with. That's how terrible I am.

I feel neutral and good and then excellent sometimes; it depends.

Not a good cook so I must say that I feel scared whenever they asks me to cook. Thank goodness, no one has ever been hospitalized due to my cooking prowess. :D

I usually feel happy and relaxed. Cooking is definitely one of my favorite activities.
I am not a big eater, but luckily my boyfriend loves food! Cooking a meal for us makes me feel like I am taking care of us.

I feel that if I were properly taught how to cook at a young age then I would feel better about it.

Sometimes I'm irked that my husband does nothing to help with meals. Most times I'm excited to try a new recipe or I'm pumped about what I'm making. I'm generally pretty calm and content while I'm cooking, but that is because I'm very comfortable in the kitchen. I can see it being really stressful for folks who don't have a high degree of competency with cooking.

I might also have to say that I am probably nervous when I am cooking for the two of us a new meal. The end results is more of how I feel probably.

Its amazing feeling when you cook something and giving it to your loved ones, hearing reviews about your cooking from them.

If it's a complicated recipe I start to feel frazzled but otherwise I'm pretty calm because there is a set of directions. If I can't handle that then I shouldn't be cooking
