Pop diva Gwen Stefani has confessed that she can’t cook.
The “Rich Girl” singer told In Style magazine that her husband Gavin Rossdale does all the cooking because he’s very “passionate” about food.
“I don’t cook. I can toast in the toaster. I can pour and set the table,” she confessed.
“No, Gavin is the one. It’s not even an option, he is so passionate about it. He cooks every day. He loves to go grocery shopping and find different things. I’m really lucky. It’s actually lucky
and hard at the same time, because sometimes you want to be fit and not eat it, but you have to eat it.”
If only we had someone to do all our cooking!!

If you’re not a Delia in the kitchen and ready meals are the staple of your diet, then the Smart Fridge might just be the gadget for you.
Imagine a world where your fridge is intelligent enough to invent it’s own recipes based on whatever it stocked with – That’s the idea behind the Smart Fridge, designed by Ashely Legg from ASUSDESIGN.
The design features a multi-touch panel mounted to the door where users can enter ingredients as they are placed inside. The fridge can then use the inventory to generate recipes and serving suggestions that the user may not have thought of. The fridge would also include a voice guide to give step-by-step instructions for preparing the meals.
Sounds pretty impressive to us!
