IMHO, not at all. One of God's great combination gifts - combines the bounty of the earth with the talent of one of his creatures, the chef.

Yes Mel. Especially if you're having what Brew had tonight.
Myself, I have always considered eating, a necessary evil that I can't wait to get over with. It's like, o.k., o.k. I have to eat fruit, veggie, cereal or protein...but lets get this over with ASAP.
I know, I'm weird.

We went out to Panera last night. We just got a brand new Panera in Ocean City. I LOVE that place!!! I'm having teeth issues and had broccoli cheddar soup and a bowl of frozen yogurt when I got home. Root canal tomorrow morning!  Everyone else got soup and sandwiches and I didn't even have to think about food!

Panera's broccoli cheddar is outstanding!
Good luck with that root canal. Although they've made them relatively painless, it still sucks keeping your mouth open that long.

Because most of the time our flat was a mess thanks to the window renovation and I have yet another cold this year, so it was a leftover dinner for us.
So we had: corn (okay, just ME, Timo dislikes it), noodles, french fries, chicken drumsticks, pork ribs, home made meatloaf (made my me) and side simple salad carrot, lettuce and swede.
It was delicious, though...

Wrong? It's compulsory!! The one great ingredient that should into every meal is respect - respect for the food and respect for those eating it.

Last night was grilled kielbasa, rice and green beans. Had to be a quick fix meal as there was a band concert and eating and clean up had to be fast.

Food is good. I like food.
In fact, I haven't met too many foods that I didn't get along with.

You might be happier watching the Food Network or something like that. Culinary school is great is you want to learn how to be part of a kitchen crew, but it's a bit disappointing if your goal is to learn how to make fabulous food. Yes, you learn techniques, but there is a lot of 'paying your dues' involved, and I don't mean money. You'd be shocked at the pecking order mentality, and the amount of time you have to spend doing anything but 'cooking'.
my 2 cents (been there done that)

Thanks FU. I don't want to waste my time and money if it's like THAT.
btw I'm a Food Network ADDICT. Also, Bravo's "Top Chef" is on the tube right now.
I've even thought of opening my own diner. Been on my mind for 10 years.
Can't use "Mel's Diner" tho, it's already taken.

Question: Where could I go to learn cooking techniques hands on? I want to learn the abc's of food, utensils, procedures too.

Mel, you don't need culinary school to cook great food and open a diner.
My favoritist meal in the whole wide world is meatloaf, mashed spuds, gravy and green beans - perfect diner food. And laughed at in culinary school.

Brew, I'm all about comfort food, but I want to step it up a couple notches. Sorta like some of those diners in California who test the waters. They make some awesome food!

Mel,
Just add bacon. That's all any good cook needs to know.
