Thank you for the results @Mi-Amigo 

I lost the plot on the Mediterranean islands 🏝 thought and thought then got it wrong😁😁😁😁😁 didn't know that there is a phobia about cooking 😳 

I do know that some escape it 🤪 😅 never see them at the cooker but rush to the table!

Thanks for the quiz 🎅🎅🎅🎅

But then @TallTrees, you have people like me, who cannot stand anyone in the kitchen 'helping'😂

I have a routine and am quite happy to get on and do things myself.

Maybe if I had a large country style kitchen it would be different (although I doubt it) 😂

[Mi-Amigo]

Definitely not a mageirocophobe, me 😋😂

[TallTrees]

You are right though, have my own style for certain.

@Cleoriff 

Don't mind them in kitchen washing up all the bowls after baking though, always

masses of these🙄

Don't mind them chopping up the veggies either😁

Only just realised I answered this WRQ but never came back to see how I did, pretty happy with my result especially because it turned out to be my last one before Christmas and the New Year. A Red Thinker to bring in 2023. Love it. Cheers Mi-Amigo... Sorry I went on hiatus after this one. 😳
