I like to cook
I like to cook. I am not a good cook, but a mediocre one, but I like to cook. I cook for myself but, above all, I like cooking for my family because, as Montaigne said, "More important than what we eat is who we eat it with." Many things can be done alone, but eating alone - by obligation - I think is one of the saddest things in our life.
Go shopping at some traditional markets; prepare food, even if they are simple dishes; eat in the dining room when you have cold weather, or on the terrace, watching the sea in the distance in the summer. These are ways to enjoy life and to share that enjoyment with the people I love. That is what cooking means to me.
I will keep informing.
What a beautiful piece of writing Fernando! Thank you for sharing it. I couldn't agree more! I have made some small edits to help the flow of the writing, take a look and see what you think. I wasn't sure what you meant by 'I will keep informing', perhaps you mean that you will keep us updated on your thoughts with your writing? I hope so!
Gracias, me encanta toda la idea y estoy de acuerdo con cómo se siente al cocinar! Jess
