Thanks so much for the feedback ...Hi there, Angie,<br /><br />Thanks so much for the feedback today. I believe that there are favorable conditions to cooking as well. Why not try playing music in the background? Or having a glass of your favorite adult beverage while you tinker away? Try something simple to prepare. It can even be a dessert or a salad. Get help with the clean-up. :-) <br />I have some cookie and brownie recipes that take a small amount of effort, yet "yield" huge taste! Let me know if you want any recipes. Keep me posted! :-)Jennifer Brown Bankshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15525705931988259779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632640970016916029.post-65991925930744748922015-03-17T18:54:59.467-07:002015-03-17T18:54:59.467-07:00Great post.

I'm going to try my hand at some cooking this week and see what I come up with creatively.Angie Dixonhttp://www.leonardotrait.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7632640970016916029.post-41418828760490511002015-03-17T05:12:33.795-07:002015-03-17T05:12:33.795-07:00Sue,

So much of our lives translates to our writing. As my friend Nancy used to say, "Living is learning." And that applies to the kitchen too, as you pointed out so well. I will be up tomorrow for some of those brownies, okay?

In fact, I think life itself can be a "smorgasbord" for writers!

You just have to be open to the possibilities, experiment and try it out, even when you doubt whether the result will be palatable. Sometimes, that's when you'll be most pleasantly surprised.T.O.
