|   Cooking Papa                             
A dog that is not domestic is a wolf. 
"Papa, you cook?!" you're probably exclaiming.  Of course I do, silly, I come from the days before cup ramen and pizza delivery.
And you're not going to get anywhere with the ladies by telling them that their place is in the kitchen.  I don't really get what
the stigma towards cooking is, since the guy with the food is always popular.  So time for some cooking how-to's.
