UPDATE: ok so the the best part about this apartment building is that we can never hear each other because our walls are so thick. It's rare. This is not the only apartment I've ever lived in. I also get home at the same time every night and do this often and it's never been a problem. The pot I used was already on the stove and I keep my TV at a low level because I don't want to disturb anyone. I'm very aware of noise levels even with the super thick walls. Which is why I don't think it has anything to do with noise. And I never filed a police report. I just let my manager know because it was super creepy. I was doing nothing wrong. Just getting ready for bed after work just like every other night.
