Sometimes it's not so much the cooking, it's trying to decide what to cook that's the problem.
When I ask the dialog goes something like this -
Me: What are you hungry for?
Him: Whatever you want to fix.
Me: Sorry - we don't have any "whatever" in the house.
or
Me: What do want for supper?
Him: Whatever you want to fix.
Me: Guess we won't be eating, then.
