Have you seen the February issue of Bon Appetit? Did you read the snippet about Alex Kapranos, the front-man for the band Franz Ferdinand? Apparently he used to be a prep cook in Glasgow in a former life. And now he writes a food column for the London Guardian. I love this quote:
“When I cook now, it’s in that laid-back, self-indulgent way that is so therapeutic when you want to clear your head of obnoxious thoughts and savor life instead. That feeling wouldn’t last long in a real kitchen.”
Exactly.

I saw this article too, and that line stuck with me–”clear your head of obnoxious thoughts and savor life instead.”
