about flying ricecooker

To be completely honest, I've just recently discovered the joys of cooking; especially cooking something wonderfully delicious for the one (or ones) I love, because what brings people together better then food? Almost nothing! Over food, and perhaps a nice glass (or a few glasses) of wine, is where stories of days gone by are shared amongst families and friends, where smiles and whole-hearted laughs are exchanged, and where the feeling of comfort and being truly happy (even if it only lasts for as long as the food does), exists.

I am in every way, a beginner cook (if I can even call myself a cook). You'll notice that plenty of the recipes that I post on here will be taken from other food-bloggers. Of course, I do have some recipes of my own up my sleeves, and I will be sure to post those too! But my hope is to start off by following the recipes of more experienced cooks or bakers, and eventually grow to where I will feel comfortable venturing out on my own. I figured, we all have to start somewhere; right? And this is the route I have chosen to take. And if I can manage to steadily maintain it, this blog will act as sort of a "tracker," if you will, for the progress (or maybe lack of?) that I hope to make in the months (or years, but hopefully not years) ahead.

Just recently, one of my favorite quotes has been:

"Anyone can cook!"

by Chef Gustav in Ratatouille


Why? Because I really hope it's true! If an animated rat can do it, so can I! Uh.. right? Right...!

I love to eat, travel the world, and eat, so this will be a blog of mixed-matched recipes from all over the world! Or what I can find on the blog-o-sphere to mesh together to resemble foods from all over the world (authenticity sometimes not included). In the end, I hope you enjoy what I cook up as much as I do!
