What is life but a dish......no no I am not on marijuana.....well at least not now!! Although if you look at it more closely you will realise I am not really that off the mark. Dishes require recipes and these recipes consists of different substance (again not referring to the banned ones!! I would;ve used the word ingredients but then it would have that effect :P) like well for starters the vegetables and/or meat; which could be either white, red or smelly...the smelly being fish; spices and herbs, oil of course and whatever else you would feel like adding. So now that your hungry its time to eat.....no no come back!! So now you ask me why in the good world am I comparing this to life...well for starters life too is a recipe which has lots of flavours!! Yes you did read it right I did say life and flavours in one sentence. What are these flavours one asks....well the answer to that is very very simple, it is nothing but the emotions! Now before you go away with a thought that goes very much like, "Yes I knew you weren't on Marijuana........it has to be more stronger than that.....what is it.....ecstasy or ice??", I would like to say that...well first I have to object on me taking any of those abusive substance (and folks my word of the day has officially become the word "substance"...now all rise and give me a big applause!!) and then I will go on and describe how I can compare these two together. See the main ingredient (see i didn't use the other word) is life itself and then we get all the spices and herbs in the form of emotions.....the happy one being the sweet ones the painful ones being the sour ones (no pun intended) and then we have some middle ground emotions where its neither happy nor is it sad and that friends is very much like an avocado, which has no taste whatsoever although if you eat lots of it you are bound to get fat again very much like if you stay in that emotionless state for a little longer than normal then very disturbing results follow suit.
Now if we were to believe what "The Whitlams" sang in their song "No Aphrodisiac" its not only foods like oysters, strawberry and so on which are aphrodisiacs but also loneliness which can apparently beat all these foods hands down.
So next time when you are cooking do give a though about what you would add to your life to make it that bit tastier. All this mambo jambo has just made me feel pretty hungry and I am off to make me self a snack......so until next time, keep cooking!! :)
