I hate cooking.
Wait, hate is a strong word. There are worse things than cooking.
I'll say that cooking doesn't interest me.
Talking about love and hate, I love Italian cuisine and I was craving some since the past few weeks. I'm too tired of eating in restaurants as I live away from home so I decided to cook Italian food myself last night.
I cooked an Italian meal for dinner last night.
Let that sink in.

Talking about it, the food was delicious. Also as my philosopher mind never ceases to run in aimless directions, I learned quite a lot about planning, presentation while cooking and I shall share my thoughts with you.
Every head chef needs a sous chef:
I wouldn't be able to manage it all alone. I was glad that I had my mother who helped me out while I learned some of her tips and tricks along the way. Similarly in life, you should be independent enough to work alone if the situation arises but also you should learn to appreciate the people who stood beside and helped you in your journey so far.
Keep tasting all the way:
(Read the next paragraph in Gordon Ramsay Voice)
Never underestimate the power of tasting as you cook. It tells us where the dish lacks so that we could balance the flavors together. In life, we need to stop at certain intervals, look back, analyze ourselves, make adjustments and move on.
Prep work is important:
If you keep on waiting till the last minute to do everything, you have already lost half of the battle. Take your time. Do your research. Make a strategy and move accordingly. You will be amazed to see how much time you save only because you made a plan before hand.
Sharing is caring:
I'm the kind of person who CANNOT eat alone. I'm sure mostly of us can't. It feels great to share the bounty with the one you love. Sharing is caring. Invite people and show them what hospitality is. Life is too short to live with grudges. Food would taste much sweeter if you're with your people.
