That's about it. I don't think my FIL has cooked a day in his life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197638 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 15:53:17 +0000 mrs. bird 197638@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>my mom cooked more when i was growing up, now my dad cooks more because he's home from work before her. FIL does not cook. at all. ever. he doesn't do anything around the house- not even mowing the lawn or shoveling, she does that too. i guess if they're both okay with it, whatever, but that would never fly with me &amp; DH!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197629 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 15:46:09 +0000 lovehoneybee 197629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom and dad both cooked, my stepmom almost never did, and more often than not MIL and FIL cook together. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197616 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 15:34:40 +0000 Running Elley 197616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Other than grilling my dad never cooks! He used to burn toast when he'd have to feed us breakfast lol. </p> <p>My FIL is a really good cook! He and my MIL are divorced and he never remarried so he's had to fend for himself for a long time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197608 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 15:25:13 +0000 pelikila 197608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both my dad and stepdad cook. One of our family's favorite recipes was a creation my dad made. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197567 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 15:00:11 +0000 littlebug 197567@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad cooked when we were growing up, but it wasn't anything terribly elaborate or involved - mac and cheese, spaghetti with meat sauce, hamburgers, chicken patties, etc. My parents split and my mom's remarried, and my step-dad tries to help in the kitchen but I think mostly just gets in my mom's way, hee hee. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197562 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 14:58:33 +0000 Smurfette 197562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both do! My Dad and Mom cook together most nights. Growing up Mom did most since Dad traveled some for work. The grill is always his job though. When we go visit the inlaws, FIL does most, if not, all the cooking. Step-MIL doesn't cook much at all. But she pours a good glass of wine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197560 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 14:56:27 +0000 mrs. wagon 197560@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad is an amazing cook! My mom is also a great cook so they were pretty split in the cooking. My dad loves to eat so he loves to cook as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197504 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 14:10:06 +0000 LuLu Mom 197504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad had 2 meals he could make: mac &amp; cheese mixed with hamburger or sloppy joe's, otherwise he was in charge of the grill and kept out of the kitchen! My FIL probably doesn't know how to turn the stove on (no joke!) haha he has not cooked a meal in his lifetime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197498 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 14:07:04 +0000 bpcmarj 197498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad makes some of my favorite meals on the planet. He lived in Louisiana for close to 20 years, and lives there again now, ao he's really good with spicy gumbo, etc. He's also a master on the grill and makes my favorite nachos and burritos. Everytime he comes to visit I make him cook for me! My FIL cooks on the grill and steams lobster. I have never seen him do anything else cooking wise. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197486 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 14:00:46 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 197486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad cooked a lot. He is a really good cook. I have no idea if my fil cooks. I never see him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197484 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:59:31 +0000 Alivoo01 197484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad's the cook/chef in the house, and he's freaking awesome at it!!! My mom can't cook, but can marinade meat like a boss. I miss my dad's home cooking since I've moved away and wish I could replicate his recipes.</p> <p>FIL doesn't cook. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197478 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:55:27 +0000 oliviaoblivia 197478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My Dad did cook, it just wasn't very good or very often. FIL has a housekeeper that cooks all his meals. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197469 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:46:41 +0000 eeh 197469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad didn't really cook much growing up and when he did cook, he burned it. Now he cooks quite a bit and has become really good at it. He's started taking cooking classes at a local shop in town with other men and he's really loving it. My mom is still the primary cook though but not for long since she'll be leaving for 13 weeks for work.</p> <p>My FIL does all the grilling and makes the breakfasts for the family. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197465 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:42:17 +0000 mrsjazz 197465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad used to work as a chef, so he can cook, however he doesn't, as that is what his wife is for! (His words, not mine)</p> <p>My father in law can cook, he always makes us a big breakfast when we go visit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197463 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:42:04 +0000 Mrs. Bee 197463@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yes my dad cooked regularly! which is unusual for korean men of his generation. my dad did all the cooking involving meat, but he can cook a lot of different things. still my mom was definitely the main cook in our household. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197460 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:41:32 +0000 DillonLion 197460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both my dad and FIL cook. FIL more than my dad, I'd say. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197459 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:41:02 +0000 DillonLion 197459@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: I'm really jealous of the food you probably ate growing up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197458 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:40:46 +0000 jennylynn 197458@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad does a lot of cooking for him and my mom these days, but when I was growing up, my mom mostly did the cooking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197456 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:40:07 +0000 MamaMoose 197456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dad actually does most of the cooking these days because he gets home from work earlier than my mom does. Dad is 100% Greek and he's a really good cook! And, he actually enjoys it. My mom is a good cook, but she doesn't get a whole lot of enjoyment out of it so it's a good set up for them.</p> <p>Other than grilling I've never seen my FIL cook. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/does-your-dadfil-cook#post-197453 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 13:38:50 +0000 autumnlove 197453@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My FIL has never prepared a meal for the family in his life! My Dad cooked a lot when I was growing up! </p>
