Washington, May 31: Singer Dolly Parton has revealed that she is like any other housewife who loves cooking for her family.

The 65-year-old star – who has been married to husband Carl Dean for 45 years – loves being at her home in Nashville, Tennessee, and cook up feasts.

“I’m like a housewife. I grew up doing the cooking, as mum was always pregnant,” Contactmusic quoted her as telling Hello! Magazine

“I learnt from my grandma and aunts, so most of my cooking is old Southern soul food. I’m not a gourmet cook – it’s not pretty, but it tastes good. Everyone loves my chicken and dumplings,” she said. (ANI)
