Writing stew

Oct 18, 2006 12:37

As I was checking the clock every 45 minutes last night when I should have been sleeping, I got to thinking how much writing and cooking have in common. And no, this isn't simply related to my post about how lessons from Top Chef apply to writing, either ( Read more... )

writing, cooking, tips

Hey, Kelly. That beef stew sounds delicious!
You've made me soooo hungry and I'm on my way out to yoga class and can't eat until after.

...and now I want beef stew.

I so enjoy your posts. I always smile and yes, think, when I read one of them. So how did it taste?

It was extra-good this time. I made it on Friday and the leftovers were gone by Sunday!

LOL...I meant the writing!
You said you were going to write some stew and see how it tastes. Ha!

I totally had this deep writing/cooking metaphor the other day and I don't remember it, but...if I did, it would be a great response. Maybe I will later. It also came about while cooking beef stew, which is the weirdest part...

Talk about your coincidences! I think beef stew is so inspirational because of how transformed the ingredients are when they cook together. I thought up my post the night before, and should have written it down then (instead of going to sleep), since it was much better formulated in its original form. Ah well, at least the stew was good!
