I can understand the anger in response Dej, I'd have been angry as well if my DH made the same remark. I believe his comment though to be 100% in good intentions - he loves you and loves YOUR cooking! That's a huge compliment for you from DH.
With that said, he's still entertaining the idea of the cook, which I think personally is a fabulous idea and I'd go with it and try!
One last small, but very important thing:

(((((((((((((Dej))))))))))))) I hope your energy level improves in days to come.
