Isn’t it nice to know how to cook things?

I was never interested too much in cooking, but now, when growing food, I feel somehow connected to it’s life cycle, from the field to the table, through the kitchen of course. It’s not only nice to plant the seed, smell fresh tilled soil, then pull a beet, a carrot or cut some lettuce, or pinch a bean pod, but also to peal it, cut it in cubes, to let it boil or roast, look at it in an oven incubator, through a thick glass, and be proud.

“Dare to know” great philosopher used to say. I dare to know how to cook, dare to wear an apron and make something good, to this world.

    Pawel!
    Great to see you the other day. As far as cooking goes I couldn’t wait to try the potatoes & squash you sent me home with. I baked the potatoes & squash in the oven and made polish sausage, sauerkraut and green beans to go with. Great potatoes & squash!
    Keep on living the dream!
