[intro]

I love cooking. All the magazines I subscribe to are about culinary arts. When I have free time, I make bread. When I need a distraction, I put menus together based on what’s in my cabinet/fridge. I love feeding people. It is the subject I am, without any doubt, the most opinionated about. Furthermore it’s the subject I feel I have the most right to be opinionated about.

Yet, only people who know me fairly well know about this passion. More than passionate about the subject, I have very definitive philosophical views on food, its perception and conception. Of which I share with even fewer. So, inspired by the means of self-publishing that are available I am committing myself to writing a weekly blog. I will share with you my opinions, my theories, restaurant reviews, maybe the occasional recipe, and god knows what else, but it will all have to do with food and my deep love of it.

And hell, Enoch has cycling, John has his romantic comedies, and well why can’t I have cooking!?

My ultimate goal in all of this is to get my peers to appreciate food- but not the Twinkie in your cabinet that may possibly survive nuclear fallout, REAL food. My hope is for you to look at what you’re eating with a more critical eye based on what truly tastes good; not what’s on the nutrition label or is convenient. There is so much more to what we eat than a caloric or monetary exchange could ever evaluate.
