As a mom, have you ever felt the pressure to cook? I have no passion for cooking and now my husband urges me to learn how to cook. Do you sometimes feel this?

to be honest, i barely used to cook before i got married, and that too when i wanted to eat a certain dish my way. the moment i got married, it was just me and hubby, and initially there was a lot of pressure on me from him and also through my in-laws that i should cook. in fact, if i could not cook it perfectly, they would call up my parents and complain. i wanted to avoid the unpleasantness and decided to go along with trying and finally learned all about cooking. also, once i had my 2 kids, i have been very particular about cooking myself and making healthy and delicious foods at home, rather than having a cook or ordering from outside. i guess everyone has a different take on it. i was kind of forced into it and am now comfortable doing it, though there are days when i take a break maybe once in a few months. then there are others who just love to cook, and others who never cook. it all depends on your interest really. if you don't want to, you can try learning and see how it goes. at least you will be able to tell him that you tried and did not enjoy it :)
