i perfer cooking at home. Since we have a 20 month old, cooking at home is alot easier than going out. Plus going out is expensive.

With the budget being pretty tight, cooking at home works out well for us.  I do like an occasional dinner out though

I hate to cook bc I hate to grocery shop! I also hate the clean up. I dont have a dishwasher :(  I also really like the social aspect of going out to eat.

i prefer to cook at home for a few reasons. first of all, cost- decent food at a restaurant is way more expensive than buying groceries to cook at home. also, my husband and son a re very picky eaters, with allergies as well, so finding a place where everyone wants to eat can be tricky and usually results in someone not liking their food. thirdly, my kitchen is my sanctuary. its the one place in my life that i know i can go without anyone bugging me. my husband and kids know that if i'm the kitchen i am in a zone and they just leave me alone, knowing they will soon be showered with the delicious results of my efforts

Honestly I prefer to go out but my husband loves my cooking. He asks why do I wanna eat someone else cooking when I cook better? My answer: because you eat too much!!

To be honest I really like them both. I LOVE my cooking, and everyone knows that it is more econicmical to cook and eat at home. I also enjoy eating out a couple of times per week, even if it fast food. IF I had more money, I would enjoy higher priced restaurants.

IF I had to eat out all the time, I would get starved for some of my cooiking. Yet on the other hand, IF I had to eat at home all the time, I would get starved for Wendy's Chili and a Jr. burger OR a Chic Filet sandwich with waffle fries and lemonade.

Going out sometimes is relaxing; most especially with family or if celebrating an special event. But, I prefer to cook because your love, patience and taste of the food come out naturally. Then sending the message to people who will eat, how much you means to them just to there.

well since i am a vegetarian, sometimes it is difficult to find food I can eat when eating out (a lot of things like soup is made with chicken or beef broth). I like to go out because I do not have to worry about cleaning up after myself, but in the past year, I have learned a lot about cooking, and I enjoy making my own meals now. I'd say I prefer cooking. When I cook I can be sure that what I eat is vegetarian. :)

I prefer cooking at home.   We are a family of 5 and for us to go out to eat it can get pretty expensive!   Plus I don't mind cooking!

I prefer to go out, especially to Italian or seafood restaurants.

But there are days when I'm in a cooking mood and I cook alot.

Although cooking can be a snooze sometimes it can also be exciting too.  We try to change it around by trying different things.  Besides going out tends to get expensive especially in these times.
