On the other day, I was thinking…why do I like ‘Home Cooking’, despite of the fact, that I am the one who cooks all the time! There is some variety of reasons to it. Number one: Cooking is like writing…I can be spontaneous as much as I want, after all…who is going to read, but me. Number two: Its like a ‘Kiss’ principle…”Keep it simple, stupid”, who cares! 3.The perfect tasteful recipes are categorized for my weekdays, so…its basically my job. 4. And, I know when to be ‘Artistic’…yeah, when I am clueless and jobless…I try something off the hook, just for the sake of my philosophical food blog. So, for these variety of reasons and quintessential…nourishment, I cook.
