Life is beautiful especially when food is around |
Hiaaaa,
This dish above looks awesome. Why wouldn't it, its from Le Pain Quotidien in Manhattan. I wish, I would have made this. Quite a mouthful as well as healthy.
It’s a truth that these days ….lifestyle is becoming so busy that we don’t even have time for one of the most important thing in life “ to cook” for our family, for our near and dear ones and not the least for ourselves. A daily home cooked meal is becoming such a rare/holiday’s event.
I like cooking very much especially for my family and friends.
It’s a fantastic way of getting together in the kitchen without forcing anybody
to actually be there. We just
chill out with each other and find out how everybody’s day was. Home cooked
meals bond us. But face it…..most of the days are so crazy that am not able to cook as much as I want to.
As soon as I hit home, I feel so tired that either we dine out or get the food
delivered. As the time is passing by, eating outside is becoming such a drag.
We don’t enjoy it any more. But we still eat out.
It’s sad that we are becoming slaves of our lifestyle, rather than we being the
commander-in-chief of it.
Enough said….I want to break this habit and desire to cook more
often if not daily. I want to make this a discipline. To defeat my laziness and
for inspiration, I started watching youtube and am following many self taught
chefs and food enthusiasts out there in the world. Its a great feeling! This
ritual gives me a great boost to cook most of the days. This got me into thinking that we all
could inspire each other. I know there are many women out there like me who
want to cook on a daily basis, want to bring back our traditional values and teach the same to our kids. So I thought of starting this blog
called “the sound of ladle”.
I really aspire that this process of sharing our love for home
cooked simple meals would inspire most people like me into becoming a chef in their own
kitchen and make cooking a daily ritual. I hope that even when we are dog tired
by our grueling and demanding lifestyle, we know our friends would be cooking a storm for their family and loved
ones, trying to put something home cooked on the table day after day with lots of
love and endurance. And hopefully this love and enthusiasm would drive all of
us to our respective kitchens on a regular basis. So I hope to hear ...the sound of ladle pretty often in our kitchen.
Looking forward to your enthusiasm.
Best,
Devi
