The Kitchen Song

tis silly I know but don’t you love to work with someone in your kitchen that is fun? I do this for a living so when I have friends that I can groove to in the kitchen it floats my boat!! It for me is like driving, If I can work with you in the kitchen… We may just be friends forever!!! Besides I love learning new things and let me tell you I have never had a better beef stroganoff than this weekend!! Bar none!

Climbing up past alabaster peaks
Jordan’s sun
Lovers Leap
Tinkering with perfection
I think
There for I am
Out of this Jam
Stones feet skipping rings
Curve of your spine fits
The model of Spring
Flowers bud and hollyhocks
Sing….

To my mind just one kiss creates
A world of life and kitchen mates!

(you make a mean stroganoff)

    Love the lilt of this – such joy I hear in this! But yes, there is something intimate and bonding about cooking together – I’m awfully glad you found a “mate” to cook with – it’s almost as creative as art, isn’t it? I hear Julia Childs in your enthusiasm!!

  • linaji replied

    It was not so intimate with so many in the kitchen.. you know how everyone gathers in the kitchen when you have a party? well all is so much fun when you do have someone to cook with but I always make room in my kitchen for guests!! It is amazing how many people love the warmth and fun of that room!!

    TC.. what a lovely thing to say!!! this has been quite a week so hearing from you always is a good omen.. my week to come will be a lighter one!

  • bill bell

    bill bell

    It reminds me of a guy off the food network from Napa valley, he always has guests over and involves them in the cooking, makes it fun and everyone is involved. Cooking should be communal and fun :)

  • linaji replied

    Do you like to cook Bill? and if so what is your fav meal to cook… should I start a journal today? lets both start it? What is your fav meal to cook? xxx

    this is so cool!! yes, i so know what you mean about cooking with someone in the kitchen. My daughter is the best to cook with, it is the one time where we are at one together, no fighting, no anger, no angst, just smooth operations in the kitchen and i love her for it.

    food is the glue that joins souls together, not always, but where there is the joy of creation, of sharing, of nurturing, of taste and valued company – there is the secret alchemy of cooking! if i was a better cook i would meditate less and eat more!

    Yes when ‘it’ goes well the singing and dancing are unavoidable! ‘Like water for Chocolate ’ is a wonderful, epic Mexicain film with love and the kitchen at it’s heart.
