I always thought I loved my mother's cooking... then I married my wife. (Sorry mom)
She is always trying something new or coming up with new stuff of her own that tastes amazing. The only downfall is that a lot of restaurants are pretty dissapointing in comparison.
Good thing I have low BP/cholesterol, because I've put on quite a few. But then she tries to cook paleo/whole 30 stuff, and that shite tastes amazing, too.

My wife is a great cook but my oldest daughter is the best cook in the entire family. Has us over every other week for supper and it's always fantastic.

I can cook anything but I can’t bake at all.

i don't bake but it's easy. just follow the directions... closely (and make sure your oven temp is correct)

She's a pretty good cook that hates cooking but doesn't mind cleaning up. I'm a better cook that hates cleaning up. It works out.
ETA- I see we're far from the only people that have this arrangement.

No and meh.
I mean she can follow a recipe so she isn't helpless.
She has other talents.

Baking is much easier imo since you have to follow directions. You have to put in exact measurements or you'll frick it up.
Cooking allows for more freedom.

I'm the cook in the relationship, but I have been teaching her. She doesn't seem to enjoy it as much as me, so it's a slow process.

yeah baking is easy, just tedious. and i mean "baking" as in following a recipe of some sort, not being a contestant on the GBBS

Cooking is just easier for me, it comes naturally.
If that makes any sense.

i don't think the gf would want to listen. she thinks everything i cook is super fatty
she's always asking me to bake chicken breasts instead of cooking them on the stove b/c i use a little avocado oil and get a crust

you have to fold the dough like 100 times

I think the only difference there is just memorization of ratios for basics types of baking. If you know the ratio for biscuits, cake, cupcakes, etc, by heart then you're fine and can customize the shape and decorations after.
There's more technical skill in cooking imo.

i just meant the complexity of the things they create off hand (as opposed to just strictly following a recipe)
