#203726 - 05/21/10 06:15 PM Life Lessons from Cooking?
Anne Holmes Boomer in Chief Registered: 03/12/10 Posts: 3212 Loc: Illinois	I just read a fascinating article on the Real Simple website that really got me thinking. It was titled: 10 Things Cooking Has Taught Me About Life It started me thinking about things I have learned from cooking that are life lessons: "Like there's no substitute for the genuine article..." You know the concept: You can substitute in cooking when you are in a pinch, but the cake will always taste better with genuine vanilla than it will with imitation vanilla. And it will taste the absolute best of all if you actually start with a vanilla bean... So I started wondering, what other life lessons have you learned from your cooking experiences?

I suppose my life lesson, then, is if you can't do it, don't do it and find someone else who can. _________________________ Well-behaved women rarely make history. - Laurel Thatcher Ulrich http://ruthrainwater.wordpress.com/ http://newbeginningsgratitudejournal.wordpress.com/ http://sablewings.wordpress.com/

Just be prepared to pick up the pieces and clean up the mess. _________________________ What I know for sure is that it's all connected. Saundra Goodman Got Teeth?
