2. What are you in the mood to cook?

A) Surprise me!

C) Something savory.

3. Are you making enough to share?

A) Depends on how the food turns out. I’ll share if it’s good, but if not, then no one needs to know.

Results:

If you got mostly A’s you are Lily!

Cooking is an adventure and recipes are for the weak. You trust your gut to get you through whatever life throws at you and the ones you love, even if you might need a moment for a good cry first. And maybe after too. (Has someone been cutting onions in here?)

If you got mostly B’s you are Holly!

People are great, but you know that no holiday is truly complete without the food. Your love language is dessert, and you’ve got loads of recipes saved to try out. Loving to cook when you’re happy and when you’re stressed might mean it’s time to go through the fridge, though.

If you got mostly C’s you are Maria!

You can pull a meal out of even the sparsest of kitchens, which is a fantastic skill to have, even if it might have been born out of necessity. You feel a big sense of responsibility for keeping people fed, but a few extra hands keep you laughing off the little things. Within reason, of course. It’s still your kitchen, after all.
