Sam2- that would be my approach.
The thing is, I am not saying that I would not cook… in fact, quite the opposite. I have always had this idea in my mind that when I got engaged, I would ask my future mother-in-law to show me how to make the foods that my chosson liked, in the way he liked. Of course I would want to make my husband happy!
I just consider it demeaning to evaluate my cooking skills as a prerequisite for marriage.
