Why I cook

[Warpy]

Well, besides being too poor to dine in fine restaurants three times a day. I cook to avoid fast food, processed food, microwave food. My six weeks in Florida in a kitchen not set up for cooking and (at my dying pop's request) eating up all the frozen dinners he'd bought on sale before he got sick was pure torture and the sky high salt content in that crap sent me back into heart failure.

The following link is one of the funniest descriptions of the stuff I was eating that I've ever read, although my pop was wise to the ways of microwave breakfast (ugh) and generally preferred a cuppa and a sweet roll.

Have fun, y'all: http://www.x-entertainment.com/articles/0744/index.html
