Costa - On Food

Costa why don't we eat out more? Costa why don't you cook for me anymore? Costa why are you not interested in the 3,000 cooking programmes I watch?

Food in one way or another is a huge subject in my house. Now I am not saying that I do not like food, in fact I love my grub, but I am surrounded by it all day. No I don't mean literally. What I mean is, my wife loves to cook and when she is not cooking she loves to read about it or watch cooking programs on the TV. I have seen more of Gordon Ramsey lately than I have of my own children.

Now as you can imagine a good night out for me does not involve sitting in a restaurant. No sir. I know that sounds terribly selfish, but I cannot go out for a meal now and not think of Kitchen Nightmares or How Clean Is Your Kitchen (or what ever it is called). I know what you are thinking "Costa you are horrible git" and you are probably right.

Look at it this way. If you had to chew chewing gum all day while watching endless programs about chewing gum and then on your night off you wife wanted you to take her to a chew gum convention, how would you feel?

The other day one of my American friends, on a forum I visit, was complaining about the lack of cooking programs on American TV. What do you think I said? Exactly! Lucky you.

Any way that's another moan out of the way. Until next time take care of yourselves.

All the best.
