If you could have a free maid or cook, which would you pick?

I would pick the cook. It'd be nice if I enjoyed cooking - I certainly enjoy the art of sitting down to a nice meal. But I am no good at it - at least at this point in my life, trying to teach myself and take care of 2 kids while I'm at it. Even if I make a good dish, I can't seem to pull everything together at the same time for a timely dinner. 

 I'd take cleaning toilets over cooking, sadly.

Re: If you could have a free maid or cook, which would you pick?

  • I'd definitely pick the maid.  Then I could cook and not have to do the dishes!
  • I would LOVE a maid.  I hate having a messy/unclean house and I can not keep up with everything.

    Yes!  I love to cook but hate all of the clean up afterwards.  I'll spend all day in the kitchen as long as someone else is doing all of the cleaning.

  • I'd love a cook.  The cooking here is never-freaking-ending and I hate cooking. 
    .
  • Maid, for sure.  I hate cleaning but I love cooking or baking.

  • Cook.  Hands down. I was born without the cooking gene!
  • House cleaner.

    I love the idea of someone cleaning up after me.  Probably because I feel that all I do is clean up after others.

  • Cook. We eat almost all freshly prepared foods (ie. meats, veggies, salads, eggs, etc) so I spend a ton of time washing, chopping, peeling, prepping, making salad dressings, etc.

    I'd love to have someone else research the recipes, prepare the meals, do the shopping, cooking and cleaning up.

    I'll clean a potty once a week instead of the kitchen three times per day :)

  • Maid. I'm not the best cook, but I don't mind doing it. I don't mind cleaning, either, but I feel like I'm never caught up with it.

  • free maid for sure!  I would be so happy to have her, I would make her dinner every night!
  • Definetly the maid, since I've been asking DH to hire one, lol. Eventhough I can't cook, dh is great at it.
  • Definitely a maid.  I love to cook and it relaxes me.  I hate cleaning and don't do it nearly as often as I should.

    Cook for this very reason.  I dont mind actually cooking the meal but I loathe planning a menu, coming up with new things to try so we dont get bored eating the same things over and over, getting the recipes and then grocery shopping.  

     

  • House Cleaner - didn't even have to think about it for a second.

    Goodness, I so want someone to come clean for me!!!
