After talking to someone on sunday
I wondering how many of us actually doing full home cooking? (no cheating like sauce jars from supermarkets etc)

No way!
I have neither time, talent or patience!

Yes, we do. Oh, apart from oven chips... life's too short to peel potatoes!
In fact, I even cook dog food from scratch!
We do 99% of the time, I should say OH does all the cooking apart from my shepherds pie
I do all the cooking for my DD though as she eats earlier & again 99% fresh with a little help from Annabel Karmel

99% nowadays (but then I do have the time and work from home). I guess it'll be 99.5% once the lambs are in freezer!
I have always loved to cook at the end of the day, apart from my busy days in London when I looked to St Michael to help me out.. alot.. (Reminds me of when I first invited our neighbours in London round for dinner - they were from Pondacherry in India and I was determined to impress them (I love cooking Indian food).. time ran short and I worked late so I prayed to St Michael and managed to get away with pretending I'd made it all .... ... 'fessed up once we got to know them!!)
Not as much as I should but we're trying to start doing it more often. It's often cheaper and its definitely better for you.
It's hard to get into the groove though eh?
We do, or rather, my partner does.
We do have sauce jars for emergencies (and me being home alone with the kids usually constitutes an emergency ) so I can do the pasta shortcut.
But apart from that, my OH buys ingredients rather than food...

I'd say about 90% we cook from scratch - actually make that 'I' cook from scratch as OH is pants cook I am terrible at making white sauces so if we have lasagne or macaroni cheese I go for the jars The rest is trial and error but according to eldest son I should have cook show on the telly - tis amazing what praise a batch of homemade muffins gets you
