I love food, but I haven't had enough practice cooking to just know what goes together, off the top of my head. I AM pretty good at making desserts, though - especially cookies. So we make a good team. He's the cook, and I'm the baker.

I'm going to pass on the battle of the sexes too for the time being.
I do wish to comment on your distinction between cooking and baking though.
Bullseye.
They're completely different. Cooking rewards experimentation, baking rewards obedience. Cooking is relaxed, baking is strict. Cooking is approximate, baking is precise. I do not have the discipline or the temperament to be a successful baker. I fancy myself a talented and enthusiastic cook. I credit it to a love of food and an inability to resist improvisation.
