Cooking

I'm going to make a bold stand here: I happen to like food. Most of the time it's tasty, it's satisfying, and it's a great way to break up the day. But I don't like all food. I'm somewhat picky, often embarissingly so. Although I'm no health-nut, I try to eat reasonably healthy on a day-to-day basis. At the very least, I try not to eat too much at once.
