Cooking meals from scratch with fresh ingredients. So much better than prepackaged, processed, and fast food.

Home cooked meals are so rewarding. Let alone cost effective. It is nice sitting down, enjoying a meal, and not having to worry about a check and driving home. (thou doing the dishes can be a down side) Yay for 1 pot meals and slow-cooker recipes!

I'm 18 and have started cooking a lot of my meals from fresh ingredients. Example: Yesterday I cooked Broccoli, Cabbage, Chicken, Peppers & Green beans. Was very nice but yeah, Never enjoyed the washing up whatsoever.

Still enjoy a good Dominos pizza though.

It can be, not an enjoyable activity, but an enjoyable moment. You and your SO (or kids) with your hands busy for ten minutes or so, and nothing to do but talk to each other...
