It's Not Just Food, it's Art.

Husband and I really enjoy watching the show Leverage on Netflix. Last night's show had Eliot talking about his passion for food. His character had this to say about cooking: 

"Alright some people could look at it and see just food but not me. I see art. When I'm in the kitchen I'm creating something from nothing, you know what I mean? Sometimes I crush it and sometimes it's crap but either way, it makes me feel something. Just, feel...I share it through my food. This is my art; it's like letting a stranger in your head, just for a second, when you allow them to feel what you're feeling"

That sums up my feeling about food pretty well.
