at it - but for some reason, none of your pals will come over when you say you're going
to cook burgers. If your wife is better than you, you may occasionally grudgingly admit it
-
but only while she's helping you put out the fire in the barbecue. Your children scream
with joy when you tell them that the family will be eating out.

= Mediocre Skill: You can successfully complete one or two recipes from your wife's
cookbook. You have invented two recipes - both are for Bean Dip. The fire department
has only been called out to your house for the barbecue grill one time. Your wife actually
lets you use the kitchen without supervising your every move. Your friends often come
over for barbecue burgers and a few beers, and your wife complains about them. Your
children scream with joy when you tell them that the family will be eating out.
3
= Good Skill: You can follow any recipe in any cookbook, and have even invented a
couple of your own. Your wife smiles a lot, and occasionally whispers indecent proposals
in your ears in exchange for you cooking that night. Your buddies call you up and ask
when is the next time you'll be pulling out the barbecue . Your children scream with joy
when you tell them that the family will be eating out.
4
= Excellent Skill: You are one of perhaps half-a-dozen living men in the whole world at
this skill level. You own a barbecue, but haven't used it in years because the last time you
tried, the whole neighborhood trooped over for free eats. Your wife foolishly whispered
to one of her friends about your cooking, and now she won't let you go out of the house
because of all the suggestive looks (and occasional butt-pinching) the women in town
keep giving you. Your wife watches you like a hawk at the grocery store, as well,
because the one time she didn't, you came home smelling of perfume and with a lipstick
smear on your collar. You haven't been out with your pals in years. You are very lonely.
You have written two cookbooks to stave off your loneliness, and it looks like the
royalties will probably put your kids through college in a few years. But your children
STILL scream with joy when you tell them that the family will be eating out.
