        I like to cook so that's not really a chore to me. My favorite chore I would say is folding laundry (because I sit in front of the TV and watch something good while I'm doing it). My least favorite chore is and has always been damp dusting. I want to throw out all my knick-knacks every time I do it - it's such a pain in the butt!

              Favs: anything to do with cooking (grocery shopping, cooking and baking) - I don't mind laundry too much, although I wouldn't call it a "favorite"!
              Least favorite: Ironing. I refuse. I haven't ironed in years, literally. If it can't come out of the dryer wearable, I don't buy it. I don't sew either. Luckily, I have a spouse who can do either if he has to.

                fav..pencil pushing...I know I was raised to see that as a lesser job, one injured folk were stuck with, but I like pencil and paper work...

                Least...dishes, I think I hate cleaning the bathroom more, but that doesn't need done in depth every day, dishes on the other hand...ugh.

                  Least favorite: Doing the dishes (I get paid for this at work so when I do it at home I kind of begrude that I don't get paid) and unclogging the toilette. Ick, ick, ick, ick!

                  Favorite: Organizing (and I love shopping for new organizers and the like) and anything I can do while listening to music (dusting, vacuuming, etc.).

                    Favorite: Cooking and emptying the dishwasher, planting and harvesting in the garden

                    Least favorite: Cleaning the refrigerator, defrosting the freezer, cleaning the toilet (but not the bathroom, I don't mind the rest of the bathroom), weeding the garden

                    Taking out the garbage used to be on my least favorite list but Rose is old enough and strong enough to take trash out to the can now, so I don't have to do it when DH isn't around. She's less than thrilled but she's gotta earn that allowance, baby!

                        Favorites:
                        Laundry
                        Cooking
                        Vaccuming

                        Least Favorite:
                        Grocery Shopping
                        Yard Work
                        Ironing
                        (& I don't do any of these things - hehe. I am so with you Jodi except I don't think my husband has ever ironed either. Just buy clothes carefully to avoid the iron. We hire a gardener and I haven't grocery shopped since I became pregnant with my first. That's all dh - phew).

                        I probably don't mind laundry because I have hardly ever done laundry for more than one. Dh does all the kids' laundry since he is home (they need their diapers and such) but I mostly just do my own clothes. So it's not overwhelming. I always found laundry to be the easiest chore (laundry for 1 anyway).

                          cleaning my living room and rec room, because I love the way I have decorated them.

                            I don't even think I own an iron, lol. I won't buy anything that can't be worn straight from the dryer or drying rack.

                              Favorite: Laundry, grocery shopping (could spend hours doing this at a good market!), cooking, vacuuming (I like the instant gratification - dirty floor, clean floor), gardening

                              Least favorite - dishes (I don't have a dishwasher), ironing (like Jodi and others, don't do it, don't know how!), mowing lawn (too much time - I hire someone), general yardwork aside from gardening.
