I guess cows aren't into the four food groups, especially when they are two of them.

the test of a cook is how she boils an egg. My boiled eggs are fantastic, fabulous. Sometimes as hard as a 100 carat diamond, or again soft as a feather bed, or running like a cooling stream, they can also burst like fireworks from their shells and take on the look and rubbery texture of a baby octopus. Never a dull egg, with me.

The thought of two thousand people crunching celery at the same time horrified me.
George Bernard Shaw

I often went to bed without supper cause I hated my mother's cooking. So, to go to bed without supper was not a torture to me. If she was gonna hurt me, she'd make me eat.

I will not allow a Delia Smith cookbook in my house! It's all so precise with Delia, and it makes cooking seem so inaccessible.

For me, directing is sort of like cooking or something. You know that you're making this interesting recipe while you're putting all the ingredients together, you can never oversee what it's gonna taste exactly. So while you're doing that, you're tasting.
Matthijs van Heijningen, Jr.

I can cook really well. I started cooking as a kid, so I can fend for myself in the kitchen and even do a little gourmet action.
Ty Pennington

If more of us valued food and cheer and song above hoarded gold, it would be a merrier world.
J. R. R. Tolkien

You don't learn knife skills at cooking school, because they give you only six onions and no matter how hard you focus on those six onions there are only six, and you're not going to learn as much as when you cut up a hundred.
Bill Buford

Appetite comes with eating.
Francois Rabelais

I do endless chopping and preparing things. I really find that relaxing. I do a lot of thinking as I am chopping and cooking.

I'm a big cook and prefer to make meals at home when I can. I'm either cooking or we're going to a drive-through somewhere. I'm really proud of my homemade sweet potato pie. At Thanksgiving I make five of them because they go quick.
Chandra Wilson

I like women who can throw a ball and laugh loud and have some spine, and I like men who don't mind cooking dinner.
Paula Cole

Even during the rationing period, during World War II, we didn't have the anxiety that we'd starve, because we grew our own potatoes, you know? And our own hogs, and our own cows and stuff, you know.
James Earl Jones
Image
I think preparing food and feeding people brings nourishment not only to our bodies but to our spirits. Feeding people is a way of loving them, in the same way that feeding ourselves is a way of honoring our own createdness and fragility.
Shauna Niequist

I asked, What are words? The tenzo said, One, two, three, four, five. I asked again, What is practice? Nothing in the entire universe is hidden.
Dogen

Brunch, for me, is an extended breakfast that should be enjoyed whenever you have time properly to engage in cooking and eating.
