We have a skylight over our kitchen, so I don't have to use any lights during the day. I usually only use the stove light at night.

I really don't like cooking without a light above the stove, but this house didn't have one when we moved in and I have lived ok without it. My husband keeps telling me we can have one put in, but I keep procrastinating and since I have lived this long without one, I'm thinking maybe its not really necessary.

I use that light all the time. When I'm cooking it must be on. When I'm drying cast iron or the wok it's on to remind me they're on the stove and it's on. If I'm cleaning the stove top it's on. I turn it of almost immediately if I'm not actively doing something but hubby doesn't have that habit down yet. ;)

I use my stove light all the time. I leave it on whenever the oven is hot or I am cooking something on the burner. My kids know if the light is on then the oven or burner is hot and they stay away. I turn it off when everything cools down.

Ours is always one- cooking or not. Its our night light and the main source of light in my kitchen. Its pretty bright.

Not me! I forgot that it was there 8 months of the 12 I've lived in my current apartment, and so ... really.... food doesn't need to see, right? Right!

Always when cooking and in the evening it is on to keep a bit of light in the kitchen. :)

I leave mine on 24/7. It's a nightlight. I'm up late at night all the time. so it's really handy to have it on.
