Cooking: It's a Wo"Men's" world

It's was a rainy December morning... Owh screw this, why do people always have to start with describing the weather. Right, I know that it has been a while since my last entry, what can I say, a man got to do what a man got to do, which is... I'll give you a clue, it starts with the letter F and ends with G... FishinG doinks! ;)

So the other day, I was lazying around and watching television (Samsung 42 inch flatscreen LCD TV to be precise R R Rrrr...), after flicking through the TV channels, I always ended up watching cooking shows. It made me think for a moment. Weird isn't it, most of us associated kitchen with women but in fact most of the top chefs in the world are Men! I know, i know, the irony. Calm down, calm down...

The word "Chef" is borrowed (and shortened) from the French word for chef de cuisine or the director or head of a kitchen. In short, chef is someone who cooks professionally and get paid regardless of ranks.  Fact: So does this mean that men demand to be paid for everything that they do? Oh my God! Yes! *Clearing throat* let me quote from the infamous villain, The Joker! "If you're good at something, never do it for free"   I know, what the.... 



So does this mean I can ask my guy to cook instead? You sneaky little thing! You thought of everything didn't you? But NO! I've read somewhere on the net (so it has to be true!) that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach!  But if you're willing to take him out for a fancy $7:50 sub of the day then he'll be a happy man!

So bottom line is: Cooking, it's a Wo"Men's" world.
