Another thing I love other than food (and cooking) is cookbooks. I have a vast collection (is 65 cookbooks qualified as "vast collection"?) of it. I hardly use them recipe though. I just flip over them and look at the pretty picture and drool. Some people read porn magazine, I read cookbook. Whatever get you going right?
When I get a bit homesick, I'll flip through my Malaysian food collection. Thinking of my Mom's & Gran's cooking (and of course of them too). They are the best cook in the world. No one can do Malay meal like those two (to me at least) and unfortunately the talent stop there. I can't cook Malay food. I did try (and fail miserably). Maybe because I'm so used to my mom & gran cooking so anything else taste like shoe (or crap). I would love to learn how to make a proper Malay meal but I'm just too lazy. All that roasting your spice, grinding, marinating etc. So much work! I say, leave the Malay cooking to the pro.
Ok, I'm off to read some cookbook now. Till the next meal!

At an early age I was introduced to this cookbook. The Anarchist Cookbook.
Kira boleh ke?

Just googled the mentioned book (oblivious on the existing of it). That'll be some explosive meal eh. LOL.
