cooking
Cooking is awesome. I'm intimidated by the process just like any other skill when I'm out of practice - cooking well takes time to learn. Managing expiration dates is difficult. The fridge feels like a ticking time bomb. Avocados mold in two weeks. When you're comfortable with your tools, cooking food is one of the best things you can do.
I think it's important for what I eat and make to be minimal. If I buy minimally processed ingredients myself, the end result will be simple and healthy for me; the more processed an ingredient is, the more likely the food is to have health consequences. Stick to whole, unprocessed foods when possible, and make things with few ingredients.

- crunch: seeds, chips, chickpeas, croutons
- sauce, dressing, salsa, sour cream, yogurt
- chopped chicken or browned meat alternative on top of that

Recipes
Love recipes, but I can do a far better job organizing these than inorg-mode files! Need to make my own syntax for expressing them so that Ican generate a cool, interactive cooking instruction website (inspiredby ICA's website: the best cooking website that I've ever seen, Ithink).
