Cooking Makes Family Creative

 Now decades later, I’m the cook in my family so the daughter-in-law (my wife) doesn’t have to cook. Don’t get me wrong, she’s a great cook, too. I just like to cook. It’s therapeutic. And my married son is also the cook in his family. The daughter-in-law can also cook. But she doesn’t have to.

Being forced into pre-1960’s stereotypes is a sure fire way to cause tension in any marriage. There’s nothing in a woman’s DNA that make it her “responsibility to cook”. And, frankly, it’s none of your business who in their marriage cooks. Leave them alone and let them make their own way. And, if you don’t like the food, you don’t have to go there.

I have listed below my poem "Wonderful is Cooking Activity"

Wonderful is Cooking activity,

In my family,

Sometimes I cook,

Sometimes my husband cooks,

Sometimes my daughter-in-law cooks.

Therapeutic is a cooking activity,

There is nothing in a woman's DNA,

That makes it her responsibility to 

cook,

In India, people are always anxious,

To know who cooks in another family,

Is it fair to do so?

Please leave alone,

That respected Integrated family,

And let them make their own way,

 If somehow you,

Can't appreciate  their  cooking,

Please do not  make this cause of tension,

Best not to eat at their place,

Let them enjoy their cooking,

A peaceful activity,

That makes them Integrated,

creative family.
