Writing and Cooking

I’ve been trying, for various reasons, to eat healthier and cook more. I’ve pretty much always enjoyed cooking, to a limited extent, I think I’m pretty good at it. I know some techniques, I’ve made some things that I was pretty proud of, and I know to have a good time with it. The downside of cooking, of course, is that can be a lot of work (usually having to do some sort of straightening up and cleaning before I start, and then some again afterwards can be a pain, especially with limited counter space and only one sink). When I get home from work, that’s often the last thing I want to do. But, self-improvement, et cetera. So, as I said, I’m trying to do it more often. I’ve made a couple of things that I was pretty pleased with, so I figured, since I started this blog to practice writing more, that I might as well put things up about that and see how it works out. Two forms of self-improvement: one stone.

I actually have been writing more than usual of late. I wrote part of a short story that was going pretty well before abandoning it, as I always do. I’ve been writing a lot for Ghettoblaster magazine: reviews, some interviews, and other things. I do semi-interesting things on a regular basis. I ought to just start throwing that stuff up here. I will make an effort to do so. It’s my promise to you, the non-existent reader. Anyways, this kind of naval-gazing nonsense is borning, so hopefully the food stuff will be more interesting.
