Cooking is a commonsense practice, not alchemy. Listening and watching closely while you cook will reveal a richly shaded language understood by all the senses - the degrees of a simmer, the aroma of a roast telling you it is done, the stages of elasticity of kneaded dough, the earthy scent of a vegetable just pulled from the ground - it is everything to mind these details. This is cooking. ~ Chez Panisse Cookbook

Weekday Dinners
I love having a few recipes that I have essentially memorized and are easy to make on a weekday; this way, I can experiment with some new recipes during the week and not have it take over my entire day. This week I made lamb chops with an improvised marinade, and a Greek orzo recipe I've made before from Food52. Yesterday, when I had a but more time, I tried a delicious coconut kale and salmon recipe with sweet potatoes and coconut rice.
