I'm loving cooking

It is just not so long ago when I thought I could never whip up anything edible. Somehow I found myself cooking, out of necessity at first, but now because I'm loving and enjoying it :)

I used to cook with a recipe as my guide, but now, I can proudly say that, most of the time, I just use my judgement.

Recipe guides are nice, but more often than not, it is layed out in a pretty predictable manner -- ingredients and the steps/procedure on how to go about the cooking of the dish; often it would show the finished product for appetite appeal.

But I found this site They Cook and Draw -- a blog devoted to showing off the beautiful work of creative people: illustrators, artists and designers -- who also loves cooking. And I find these rendered recipes so much interesting and fun.

Here are some of the gorgeously illustrated recipes you will find in the site.

windows

Windows, especially with balconies, i like.

With the greens and the flowers, it looks fresh but rustic and classic at the same time.

Here are some that I particularly adore.

Cj, my daughter.

She's grown so big, and she's getting lovelier everytime I look at her...

well, I'm her mom :)

crave

Sometimes you crave for somethings,

and those somethings, often are not yours to have.

It kinda gives you an empty feeling, a void,

a hollowness in the inside.

It stays.

Fades sometimes.

Re-surfaces when least expected.

It stays, hope it will fade away, forever.
