Excuses for Not Cooking

Who has the time?
I should have let my mother teach me how… but I didn’t.
I’m on a diet.
With schedules like ours? No way!
The dishwasher’s broken.
I tried it once, and I burned myself. See… here’s the scar.
My mother-in-law is a terrific cook. I don’t want my husband comparing me to her in those terms, too.
Ramen noodles are healthy and filling, and you don’t have to wash the bowl.
I eat at the office and expense-account the charges.
Waiters and busboys are depending on me.
I can live on peanut butter and banana sandwiches.
Do I look like Rachael Ray/the Iron Chef?
I use the oven to store things.
The cookbook says the dish takes an hour to make. The order-in delivery guy will be here in 20 minutes.
If you can’t get it at McDonald’s, it’s not worth eating.
I cooked once and chipped a finger nail.
