When you cook do you use a recipe?



  • for baking only
  • for most things I'm following a recipe
  • I have them all memorized
  • no I just wing it
  • I don't cook
  • just for new recipes
  • all the time for almost everything
  • of course, cooking is an exact science
  • The "other" selection,,,,, LOL ;O)


You will be able to change your vote.

I agree it must be nice, and once one knows that ratio of things it can be done sucessfully... I'm also not one of those who can...
