LOZ, WHAT? :rolleyes: Baashi, cooking is an acquired skill. No-one is born with it. Just because men often get excused from doing it, especially in Muslim societies doesnt make it an inherent xalimo skill waiting to be explored (or exploited). I find it funny that men do all the inviting for the martiqaad and women do all the cooking. I personally, operate on a you-invite, you-cook policy. And one more thing Baashi, as always, you forget that qallanjos like to be cooked for too. Nothing says I love you like a well cooked meal, me thinks. Luckily all the new faarax's know this essential rule maalmahan

Originally posted by Baashi: Well qallanjo with no skills in the cooking department is a half woman . Full stop, dot, and period . This essential skill is what makes a home a real home. Thats unfair Baashi. Amy person must learn to cook, if only to feed themselves and a woman's cooking abilities is not a measure of her worth and any Faarax who blv cooking is for women or expects his woman to do it all is a useless no-gooder a woman can do without!

Bee, Happy B'day Sweety. *kisses & Hugz*. As for to-do-lists, I do them on a yearly basis and not beyond. And for the coming year, my sole goal is to get rid of all my student dept and be free of it by next june. Smaller goals are to take care better care of my health - eat well, on time, only good food and exercise healthy + travel a bit, enjoy life a little more and not be so frigging upright about things (ya know ).

UD, cooking is a basic survival skill one must have (especially an educated one ) to survive and eat healthy. I dont enjoy cooking everyday but I can when I want to. Now stop taking cheap shots at me and answer my questions.

I also take it you dont eat, SB? Caqli xumada halkeed ka keentey horta?

Qac, you're not welcome in my books. Take you married behind back to the bedroom! No matter how many times I welcome you, congratulate you and shower u with all these nice compliments, I still never get a shout-out... always just the qaxooti crew. :mad:

^ SB, what can you cook? Viking, you seem like a seasoned chef . Do you cook often for the wife? I’m not a bad cook, I just don’t enjoy cooking…especially when it becomes a chore and you’re forced to do it day in and day out. One looses the will to make it good then. Wish we could just be content with one meal a week! Today, I made vegetable rice, grilled salmon, chips, and salad for the family. I figured this is the longest I’ve been home with no obligations and I aught to make mummy happy. I could tell the girls enjoyed it too, although they would never show any appreciation for me… even if I put honey in their mouths, they would argue it wasn’t that sweet. Teens these days! :mad: Am interested to know what was the last thing you guys cooked too . p.s. Stoic. Thanks and you too!

Sometimes its not a choice, what the heart wants, the heart wants! And it may not always get it.

Last Saturday, on account of my graduation, a friend of mine has decided to invite me to dinner and cook. Now, this might seem like a not-so-out-of-the-ordinary nice gesture but I’ve never known this friend to be a cook or the type that would go through the pain of getting hot over a stove to please anyone. Moreover, I’ve never considered preparing dinner for my friends/loved ones special… well, cooking at all never struck a cord with me. I’m the kind of girl who will recommend a good number of places to dine out and then take you out, never the thought of doing it myself entering my head. I’ve even suggested to the above-mentioned friend not to bother herself and just take me out to eat, but she insisted on cooking. So I went (secretly thinking nothing that great could come out of a home-cooked meal!)…. But my friend made a better meal than I could’ve ever had outside and the fact that she went through the trouble to make it made it all the more special. She also said there was something personally satisfying about making food and watching the people you’re making for enjoy it and appreciate. Having never had this feeling, I decided to start cooking for the family (after almost 2yrs of going nowhere near the kitchen), and I’ve to agree, there is something extremely gratifying about making a great home-made meal, chopped with affection, cooked with love and fried with sweat (erm.. not literally of course ). Not to string this story along all day, but I’ve two questions to ask: Do the nomads consider cooking a special meal personally satisfying? And have you ever cooked for a special someone and what did you make?

Ilaahayow u sahal. .

Hayaaaay! Miss Lee, look away baan ku yidhi, I do not swing both ways. Jimcaale, still writing in af-shimbireed? Maxaad tidhi bal? *Runs out of the room

So I'm sure I've observed these duds in actions somewhere else as well. Dont make me look through the other awful topics around as of late.

You guys dont take instructions well, do you? Perhaps a congratulatory thread would not have been a bad idea.. I know other nomads who have graduated now or recently too - Animal Farm, Lander, Rahima, just to name a few. Good job everyone.. now we can really look forward to getting stuck in a rut. p.s. Thanks to the late comers to my party.

Tanag u, u and u p.s. all further congrats via PM... please?

Castro, Pacifist and Blue, Thank You.

I feel like I've grown up on SOL sometimes. . Thx for the well wishes.

Bishaaro, my 'room' (I dont have a 'place' yet, the rest of the house belongs to mummy dearest ), is in transition... I plan to make it the most comfortable and cozy room in the house now that I've the time (I'm an 'unofficial' graduate as of last friday - yippie!). Your 'place' looks neat. I wish rooms come that size in London.

I just moved into a new house and my little computer has no desk yet.. this is why I cant write on SOL.. 'cause my elbows and back hurt from all the sitting on the floor! Will any1 be kind enough to point me in the direction of a good corner work station? p.s. Blue, feel free to tell me to take my ugly pic out of your beautiful thread.

Chin up sweets, the visiting hours were crap! few hours? I was planning to make it my second home.
