Can I say that "I make dinner" or am I confined to "I cook dinner."

Also,

Can "I have dinner?" or is it only "Yo como cena."?

You can also say: "yo soy la que hace la cena"

So, help me understand this.

Here in the states we can say:

I am making dinner.

I am preparing dinner.

I am cooking dinner.

But if I were to say this in spanish, am I confined to saying preparar so that spanish-speaking folks will understand me?

Is there any other way to say this?

Yo soy la cocinera. Es lo que hago yo. Yo soy el que prepara la cena. Mi marido, no cocina. La hembra? Tampoco. Yo soy el quien es el dueno del cocino. Entonces, I am the cook. wink I don't know if you read spanish well, but in spanish, in the home, you say I am the cook. It's my job. That's what I do. wink

Yo soy el que prepara la cena.

If a woman says this phrase, would it be "Yo soy la que prepara la cena." ?
