"I have never lied about this, I have never been 'a doing the cooking kind of woman'. When my husband met me, he knew. He was the one who used to do the cooking because he is good at it. I used to do the cooking when I felt like. Sometimes, it comes out to be a huge success and sometimes a failure. Some years ago, I cooked vegetables and it was terrible and my husband is such a gem, he ate it like that. It is not as if my mum didn't teach me. For my husband, cooking is a therapy and for me it is a chore and yet he will always tell you that I look after him so much, I do that in other ways. We have somebody who does the cooking. I have taught them to cook the way I like and we have people who do the general cleaning."

ReplyDeleteMarried is all about understanding! Who cooks can be secondary! Loving someone is to loathe the odiousness of pride, to assuage the eagerness of spite, to prevent the vengeance of quarrel, to reap the sweet fruits of temperance and to enjoy the felicity of contentment. Let moderation restrain licentiousness, discretion abandon unity, mildness assuage choler, meekness allay arrogance, consideration reclaim rashness, indifferency attemper passion, courtesy mitigate, charity appease, and unity atone debate. All the best to these lifelong lovebirds!

ReplyDeleteI love this post, my ideal kind of man. God please show me this type......Amen. Some men be acting like a woman's life starts and ends in the kitchen.

ReplyDeleteCute couple
ReplyDeleteStupidity is when a woman, a mother don't know how to cook.. how stupid and telling it to d world... Hmmmm aunty Linda hope u sabi cook oh! abeg does this woman have children.. FROM ME!
ReplyDeleteWhy would dis woman say dis... na wa oh!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's what marriage is all about. Understanding.....
ReplyDeleteI JUST LOVE THE GENTLE MATURITY AND CHEMISTRY OF THIS COUPLE...THEY ARE JUST SO CLASSY AND VERY UNDERSTATED WHY CAN'T SOME OTHER PEOPLE TAKE NOTES AND SEE WHAT IT MEANS TO BE CLASSY..POLISHED BEAUTIFUL EDUCATED PEOPLE..
ReplyDeleteSo far it suits both of them they are both happy. For those of you that want a woman that will be pounding yam please make sure you are a millionaire so that she would sitting at home and be ministering to your every need. And woe betide you, you do not have that kind of money and she has to work, then your expectations I believe are unrealistic.
ReplyDeletePlease her not liking to cook is not a flaw. It is a choice and they have been living together happily.
ReplyDeleteCan you see that !!?? When people will be praying "God i want Joke Silver kind of woman for a wife" .. ME I DON'T OO !! . Now i know being a screen diva doesn't mean a wife material.
ReplyDelete@ Prince Charming; Marriage not married insightful piece though. in my opinion, cooking for the family should not be restricted to only the women. Married men pls take time out to help your wives, we both go to work early and return late anyway! so whoever comes back earlier should do dinner.
ReplyDelete#laughing#prince charming is back! I swear I luv ur oyinbo wia u learn am 4rm? Mi lik u sha
ReplyDelete#laughing#prince charming is back! I swear I luv ur oyinbo wia u learn am 4rm? Mi lik u sha
ReplyDeleteLove dem so much, she is Ma role model but disssssssss......... Cnt dat learn frm her coz finish na ma name considering ma hubby doesn't eat out and hates it wen someone els does d cooking no mata hw tasty it is.....
ReplyDeleteLove is a beautiful thing
ReplyDeleteI wudnt mind too...like she sed...she lukz after him in other wayz...like makin hiz house a home n raising responsible kids...lovin n takin care of him...they r soo cool dey dnt even bear the same name n there love is heavenly...we all deserve understandin ppl in our lives....God bless my GF 4 me
ReplyDeleteLol. I no understand too
ReplyDeleteThank God you can afford to pay people to cook and do general cooking. Many women have destroyed themselves with their failure to learn to do anything.
ReplyDeleteYou are Lucky then...
ReplyDeleteMoral, girls don't bother learning 2 cook. So long as u find love dat is secondary. U may not b as lucky, so don't try it.
ReplyDeleteD story is not of love alone but dat of a spoilt previlaged girl who was lucky 2 c some1 who cares less of her flaws.
They understand each other, that's what marriage is all about
ReplyDeleteNow you are all praising her because its Joke Silver, had it been its an up and coming actress that says 'I don't know how to cook well' you all would have crucified her. Anyway I can authoritatively tell you that they do not have a happy home. They live in a separate world in their home. You are only seeing what they want you to see. They don't love each other one bit.
ReplyDeleteAnother shocker, did you know that Joke Silver is a female Sango? As in, she smoke fire.
So my people, don't be too quick to judge from the outside.
Truth be told! How many women really knw how to cook these days? Or rather how many women still enter kitchen? If u can afford stewards and good cooks, why not? It's only in Africa that pple still have primitive mindset that women must cook or knw how to cook
ReplyDeleteIm sorry to say this but shame on you ma....hian...
ReplyDeleteLove is blind
ReplyDeletePlease tell them o! Marriage works when there's understanding. Full stop! There's nothing like 'this is the responsibility of woman' or 'this is the responsibility of a man'... When thats established,,,carry go! Whatever works for you,,works for you... Whatever doesn't,,,,doesn't... Arrange your life to suit you and your partner....and live life!
ReplyDeleteOh this reminds me of my parents,but in my case my mum loves cooking as well as my dad and it was not a one person responsibility,when we were younger i used to prefer my dad's jollof rice to my mum's,i and my siblings called it 'party rice' lol...i on the other hand cooks not because i love cooking though my cooking is excellent but becos i no want starve for school and it is economical.big ups to mr and mrs olu jacobs,they are definition of true love and have embraced there flaws.
ReplyDeleteThis is very fake, i can say it with all sense of responsibility. Will Joke herself allow her own son marry her type who doesn't cook or like cooking? If i pray for all you ladies lauding over this woman, that your male children would marry her type; would you say aman? Let's call spade a spade.
ReplyDeleteI realy heavy u ma how I wish moat of our men can have that understanding may the Lord keep on blessing it marriage
ReplyDeleteGood for u. lucky u have a very 'understnding' african husband.
ReplyDeleteThat is good for you Mrs Joke silva, but then , keep this to yourself , i cant imagine how many ladies will let this go upside their heads and decide to stop cooking for their husbands,after taking this in and then shit hits the fan, the relationship will be strained or even worse....
ReplyDeleteThis is the kind of comment that will mislead these gullible ladies and they wont be able to get a Husband for them selves , when youre silently introducing indomie ideas
ReplyDeleteAn exemplary union
ReplyDeleteShameful.
ReplyDeleteIts same with me. Though I cook really well but my husband loves cooking. I'll say he's a better cook than I am and I let him have his way every now and then. This week it's me, next week for a diff taste it's him and our home works great that way. Whatever rocks ur boat ma'am.
ReplyDeleteThere is no 100% perfect Marriage but the ability to understand & tolerate each other makes it perfect. Tnx for been frank madam.
ReplyDeleteInspiring couple and nollywood actor and actress.
ReplyDeleteShe's doing okay...she has kept hi, this long hasn't she
ReplyDeleteLook at coments, a lots of street girls and women just thinking thats it all, look at them talking about understanding and education even if the husband does help her she should be ashamed of her self for not beingable to cook thats not a pride, girls/women its ur duty to know how to cook stop to apoint blaims on men when u know you are a wawald girl or woman come to think of it how many girl or woman would come out to say the problem i hv with my man am at faulth? Just almost none
ReplyDeleteso preety ladies or girl prepare urself well against any unforseen circumstances
i believe its good for a woman to cook for her family. this even strengthens the family bond. a man can help occasionally, but a wife should cook its very important.
ReplyDelete
