Of pots and pans


Why do you cook? To survive or because that’s the way it is… right? I don’t have the perfect answer to this question. But what I do know is that for some people, cooking is life. My sister and I religiously watch cookery shows based on famous chefs like Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson, Curtis Stone or Kwylie Kwong. I am amazed at their passion and blown away by their energy for cooking!

They don’t just cook..they LOVE to cook!!!

It may be a simple dish like marinating a steak with herbs and olive oil or preparing a dessert. It doesn’t matter how simple or ordinary, the results speak for itself! Their knowledge of cooking is immense and they are not afraid to try and experiment with flavors!

Truly, I am stumped!! I may never be an expert in cooking or dish out exotic meals to my folks. But, I do know one thing: Every time I enter the kitchen, I will try to cook with the same passion and excitement!!
