"What I want to say is that if you do decide to go through
life without cooking, you are missing something very, very special. You are
losing out on one of the greatest pleasures you can have with your clothes on.
"Cooking can be as passionate, creative, life-enhancing,
uplifting, satisfying, and downright exhilarating as anything else you can do
with your life. Feeling, sniffing, chopping, sizzling, grilling, frying,
roasting, baking, tasting, licking, sucking, biting, savoring, and swallowing
food are pleasures that would, to put it mildly, be a crime to miss out on.
"Add to that the buzz, the satisfying tingle that goes down
your spine when you watch someone eating something you have made for them, and
you have one of the greatest joys known to man."
Nigel Slater in "Appetite: So What Do You Want to Eat
Today?"
