<<Hasn't anyone ever heard that old saying... "Never trust a skinny Cook" 
?>>


The cook must be cleanly both in body and garments. She must have a quick 
eye,
a curious nose, a perfect taste, and a ready ear; and she must not be
butter-fingered, sweet-toothed, nor faint-hearted. For the first will let
everything fall; the second will consume what it should increase; and the 
last
will
lose time with too much niceness.

Gervase Markham, The English Huswife, 1683.

"One can never know too much; the more one learns, the more one sees the 
need to learn more and that study as well as broadening the mind of the 
craftsman provides an easy way of perfecting yourself in the practice of 
your art."
Auguste Escoffier
